I would like to get TC tracks out to 168 h instead of the standard 126 
h.  My config file has:

  if [ $cycn -ne 00 ]; then fseg=1; fi         # for hurricane track, 
only 120-hr fcst is required
  if [ $cycn -ne 00 ]; then fmax1=126; fi

I changed fmax1 in the config file to 168, but still only got output to 
126 h.  I see in my output

  + extrkr.sh line 312: fcsthrs= 00 06 12 18 24 30 36 42 48 54 60 66 72 
78 84 90 96 102 108 114 120 126

Any idea how I can get the track out to 168 h?

Thanks
