I prefer put directly the ascii file onto the site_list directory;
the format is some like this:
100:49:36.8400W|19:51:29.9880N|#1052 @161100001 estac_LOC95gg
100:49:36.8400W|19:51:29.9880N|#1145 @161100001 estac_LOC95gg
100:52:24.0000W|18:27:00.0000N|#1059 @16059 ERIC LA_CAIMANERA,_HUETAMO


thats all you need, a file like this and put in:
$LOCATION/site_lists
