Well the problem is "fixed" which means they changed the block's MODOPT to a 4 
and got it to  work correctly with a bit of retuning.  We know the params from 
the iccprt were the same before & after. Whether the running params had been 
correctly uploaded I don't know.  Did the IA version change? I think so.  
Weird, but not worth worrying about.
Thanks y'all.
