Hi,
re:
> I uploaded 16 Chans of 10 files each in my dropbox IMG202209280100 folder
I just grabbed all of these files and moved them into the band-dependent
directory structure that I am using for testing. Thanks!
If you need to free up space in your Dropbox, you can remove the images
you uploaded today and yesterday as I have downloaded all of them to
my testing environment.
Here is some IMGLIST output for the two Channel13 images that you
made available:

I will be having a Meet with the SSEC developer I mentioned in previous
emails sometime this afternoon (the one yesterday had to be postponed)
to go over what I found and what I think needed to be changed. After that,
I will do a bunch of testing to make sure that everything expected of
the servers is working with the mods I made.
Cheers,
Tom
