+ Its first record represents January 1st, 1992 at 00:00 UTC.
  Next record is 2592000 seconds (or 30 days) later.
+ Note that the first record read and used by the EXF package corresponds to the
+ value 'startDate1' set in data.cal.  Therefore if you want to start the EXF
+ forcing from later in the 'ncep\_qnet.bin' file, it suffices to specify
+ startDate1 in data.cal as a date later than 19920101 (for example, startDate1
+ = 19940101, for starting January 1st, 1994).  For this to work,
+ 'ncep\_qnet.bin' must have at least 2 years of data because in this
+ configuration EXF will read 2 years into the file to find the 1994 starting
+ value.
  Interpolation on-the-fly is used (in the present case trivially
  on the same grid, but included nevertheless for illustration),
  and input field grid starting coordinates and increments are
  supplied as well.
