FILLM was run in 2006 or earlier for all these data, AM857 (2006 A- 
array) & AM825 (2005 B-array). But this was also true for AR386, these  
1996 Richards data.

Based on info in your earlier email, I think this was correct, i.e.,  
time correction=1/2. But I don't have any old tget files on this mac  
pro so tonight when I go home, I'll check the G5 for my old UVFIX  
values.
