All I have been shown is some inputs to the task that could not work
I need more details of exactly what did not work not some edited thing 
provided by the user.

The load module for UVLOD was last changed December 8, 2010 - if its 
behavior has changed since then, something else has changed.

The user could try FITLD which should be the same code for an ordinary 
FITS file.
