Hello Seadas folks,
I having trouble processing a few pass of aqua data captured via direct broadcast with seadas 7.   The data processes fine with an older version of seadas, 6.4 I think.

Here is what I am trying:

geogen_modis created A2017031221045.GEO successfully!


We receive a lot of aqua passes via direct broadcast where the middle of the pass is cut off due to the direct broadcast being turned off because the global dump is occurring inside our station mask, and the direct broadcast signal is turned off when the global dump is occurring.

If anyone has any suggestions I would love to know about them!

The source data can be found here: http://hippy.gina.alaska.edu/distro/sample_pds.tar.gz

Thanks,
