Re: [gembud] GAREA with IATA ID

[Steven G Decker <decker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

To answer my own question, it looks like $GEMTBL/stns/sfstns.tbl has 
changed, with all identifiers standardized to four letters.  (On the 
other hand, $GEMTBL/stns/snstns.tbl still uses three-letter IDs for 
CONUS upper-air stations.)
