There is a single station table in McIDAS that is quite large.  Instead of
sending you that binary file (STNDB.CORE), it may be quicker to simply
list out the values for 74646:

STNLIST 74646
IDN   ID     Station Name         Data Types        ST CO LAT        LON        
 ELE
----- -----  -------------------- ----------------- -- -- ---------- ---------- 
 ----
74646 KF30   Sulphur Municipal    M   R             OK US   34:31:00   96:59:00 
  320
Number of stations listed: 1
STNLIST: Done

If the location of this station is incorrect, it can be corrected in the 
site-modifiable
table STNDB.SITE (which is in ASCII text).

Cheers,

Tom
