When did you guys fetch 31DEC99?  The ls you sent me just said
September which implies to me 2000 not 1999.  I would guess that that
is the day you linked or re-linked IMAGR and is actually not releavant
to the contents of IMAGR.FOR.

It cannot work if IMAGR.FOR etc are old - we are going to freeze
31DEC99 as 15DEC00 and do a new release.  This is rediculous trying to
fgure out what version of what you have.  I tried your parameters on
"my" data and all ran well.

   A COMPRESS verb inside AIPS gets new adverbs and discards wasted
spce.  The adverb values remain the same.  That cannot change whether
a task is there or not.
