Looks like I forgot to include m0readd.for in the update
list; m0readd.for was new in SSEC McIDAS v2018.2.  And, it looks
like I completely forgot about adding SSEC-modified files to the
mcupdate.tar.gz update file.  BAD!

My best advice is to download, unpack and use the full distribution as that
should be up to date.  I would not wait for a new mcupdate.tar.gz file as I
am going to have take a very close look at my update procedure.

Also, as an FYI: I have cloned the SSEC core ABIN ADDE servers and
modified the clone into a new set of servers for NOAAPort-delivered
GOES-R/S ABI imagery and other Level 2 products.  Like the ABIN
servers, this new server (currently labeled as CMIP) _requires_ that
the files that it will server have GOES-R mission standard names.
The speed improvement for listing/copying/displaying images from
these servers is, to say the least, dramatic.  I have implemented the
servers on the NPGOESR and NPGOESS datasets served off of
lead.unidata.ucar.edu as a live test.  If you get a chance and are
at all curious, try listing/displaying some NPGOESR and or NPGOESS
products in McIDAS, McIDAS-V or the IDV.

re:
> Thanks in advance, any help would be appreciated.

Sorry for the brain freeze!

Cheers,

Tom
