I have changed UVLOD and FITLD in 31DEC20 to be more forgiving on error 
reading the file.  A MNJ tomorrow on 31DEC20 will update your version.  
Note that a FITS file written by FITTP puts the UV data ahead of the 
tables (and the FITS standard means that I can't change that).  So the 
tables which are essential to understand the data are likely to be the 
things lost by a premature end of file. FITS files written by FITAB 
however have the small tables written first, so it would be the UV data 
that might be truncated.  UVLOD and FITLD will now handle that case well.

Good luck

Eric
