WMS Layer Problem

I made a WMS request in my browser using the request parameters 
specified in your photo layer:

http://terraservice.net/OgcMap.ashx?request=getmap&service=wms&version=1.1.1&width=500&height=500&layers=DOQ&bbox=-170,60,-150,75&srs=EPSG:4326&format=png

The WMS gave an error: "Invalid Lon-Lat coordinates, must specify at 
least one (lon,lat) pair correctly; Longitude must be between -170 and 
-60 Latitude must be between 15 and 75 "

With a different lat-long bounding box it seems to work. I tested with 
bbox=-124,46,-110,52. I think the source WMS server doesn't like your 
bounding box.

That's just a guess. I don't know exactly what WMS URLs mapserver is 
using to request the photo layers. If you have a way to intercept those 
outgoing URLs that should give you enough clues to fix the problem.
