So I manually deleted all the files from the remote ftp server to make it 
upload a fresh.
it tries to ftp ALL files twice, but fails on the first NOAA txt file, the 
partial file from 2014-10 when station started up.
because this fails (although I can see it on the ftp server), it tries a 
2nd time to upload everything, then quits on this file again.
the whole process takes 3 minutes to upload as it tries to upload 
everything (twice on every 5min cycle) because that 1 file fails.
any ideas on a fix for this?
