Hi, Mary,
When I was preparing my stuff (to obtain the most reduced set of them with the reported problem) to ftp to you,
I found I misunderstood the format of the displayed lat and lon and made a false alarm.
I apologize for this, though I'm glad I finally found the problem during the process of seeking help from here.
Your kindness in willing to help is appreciated.
Best wishes,
Ting
