Fixed.  You're right, I forgot to update a few files when we added the
Voyager 1 occultation data.

Fixed.

Fixed. Thanks.

Fixed.

I added a note about that now.  We don't have calibration models for
either the delta Sco ingress or for the iota Her occultation. 
However, these occultations are mainly useful for their geometric
content, so the lack of calibration models is probably not critical.
