:bug: AIRS converter prints one too many obs converted, and has bad input.nml defaults

Describe the bug

  1. Run the AIRS converter, look at the number of obs printed
  2. the output really has only N-1 obs
  3. Also, the input.nml defaults cull out all obs (bad choice for defaults) and has -60 to 60 as the latitudes which excludes obs near the poles (in one test case all the obs were near the poles and i got no obs output).

Error Messages

If the converter converts 0 obs, it prints out 1 obs converted which is confusing.

Which model(s) are you working with?

AIRS obs converter
