I'm trying to import the 1:2000000 USGS DLG from CDROM
I finally got it to sortof work, that means no errors
but the coordinates are wrong.

my location/mapset is in lat lon coords and I'm bringing
in section 10 data (states CO,KS,NE) the lat lon's derived
are totally off, like 23 Million degrees North

Anyone done this?

Thanks
