Chris -

I would start by setting the LAYER object to STATUS DEFAULT rather than
STATUS ON, and you don¹t need an EXTENT statement inside your LAYER.

No, I'm setting all the parameters (well, as many as I can and understand).
I tried to follow the Proj.4 .pdf manual and I was kinda confused what
lat_1, lon_1 and lat_2, lon_2 were supposed to be or if I even needed them.

Here is my map file:

I have that reference section in there although I really don't know the
point behind it.  It didn't change a thing, so I commented it out. Thanks so
much David for your help!
