UVPLT was changed in late August.  Perhaps your copy of UVPLT has become 
corrupt somehow.  Do you use a binary installation (which we recommend) 
or do you compile the code locally?  I would guess that the help file 
and the binary do not match.

The best thing to do would be to move the current files away (rather 
than delete them) and then run a MNJ.

cd $AIPS_ROOT
source LOGIN.CSH         (or . LOGIN.SH)
$CDTST
cd
mv $YPGNOT/UVPLT.FOR .
mv $HLPFIL/UVPLT.HLP .
mv $LOAD/UVPLT.EXE .

then do_daily.<hostname>
