20020114: McIDAS functions (fwd)

Bill,

I apologize for not being able to get to your email.  I am currently in
Orlando at the AMS annual meeting.  I will work with you
on your McIDAS data problem when I return to Boulder
early next week.  My only quick comment is that the failure to display
data is most likely related to one of two things:

o your system is not ingesting and decoding data
o your McIDAS session is not pointing to ADDE servers that have data

So, the problem is most likely one of configuration on your machine or
in your McIDAS session.
