                       period of time for the S/C 
                       ex: 123 means first apply roll,
                       then pitch, last yaw. 312 means
                       first apply yaw, then roll, last
                       pitch.

                       must be filled with the laser number.
                       For the S/C this number should
                       be 00 (See example).

ATITUD EXAMPLE

The example below requests adjustment of roll, pitch and yaw (complete 
five term polynomial: constant, linear, quadratic, amplitude and phase
terms) with a sigma 1.D0 for each parameter. The S/C (id=9252010) has a 
laser instrument (id=001) and a solution is requested for both S/C and 
laser instrument at time periods:
1. EPOCH           -  930219031600.00
2. 930219031600.00 -  930219111600.00         
The sequence of rotations for the S/C is: ROLL-PITCH-YAW
The sequence of rotations for the laser is: ROLL-PITCH-YAW

In the above case GEODYN will assign zero values and sigmas =1.D-30 to all 
the other parameters in the model. In general, if only one parameter in the 
model has been assigned a sigma, GEODYN will use a full model parameterization
scheme with tight sigmas for all the other parameters.
