[McIDAS #PIB-862616]: Bad file on ADDE server for GOES-South

["Unidata McIDAS Support" <support-mcidas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Greg,

Mike and I were over aiming the dish between FL-1 and FL-2 to point at
GOES-10.  We needed to be there at 1:30 pm our time since that was
the listed time of equatorial crossing plus the satellite is currently
at 59.99W longitude... Can't get much closer to being exactly in the
middle of its E-W and N-S excursions than that!  By the way, the signal
strength on this dish appears to be measurably better than the dish
up at the Mesa!!

re:
> There's a file on your GOES-South ADDE server with a time stamp of

Done.  "For the files": the process of removing an errant file is:

- delete the entries for the file in /data/sdi/SH and /data/sdi/ALL
- delete the corresponding file from the same directory

OK.

Interestingly, the time stamp on the file was 7:00 am this morning...

> Thanks,

No worries.

Cheers,

Tom
