NOTES : [1] If no satellite ID's are specified, card applies to all satellites  
            in run.                                                             
                                                                                
        [2] The user may request application of this solar radiation model      
            for up to four satellites on one card (A maximum of 30 satellites   
            can be requested).                                                  
                                                                                
         3  The new version of the rock4 solar radiation model came from        
            a paper given by H.F.Fliegel and T.E.Gallini at the AGU             
            30May91 where for BLOCK I satellites X and Z are as follows         
                                                                                
               X=-4.55SIN(B)+.08SIN(2B+.9)-.06COS(4B+.08)+.08                   
               Z=-4.54COS(B)+.20SIN(2B-.3)-.03SIN(4B)                           
                                                                                
            For BLOCK II satellites, X and Z are

        [4] This card is used in conjunction with SOLRD card.
