[daip] DBCON problem

I am trying to combine two data sets, CD observvations from 1998, and B 
array from 2001.  When I combine them using DBCON, I actually obtain a 
_higher_ flux integral.  All I can guess is that I don't understand the 
reweight parameter -- from the help file I thought that I would be able 
to set it to zero for these data.  Could you suggest anything?  The data 
headers and the DBCON parameters are attached below.  Thanks very much 
for any help,

Lauren Davis
