I have a tar archive that is erring with:

star: Tar file too small (amount: 0 bytes).
star: Unexpected EOF on input.
star: Cannot recover from error - exiting.
star: 19 blocks + 5120 bytes (total of 199680 bytes = 195.00k).

It seems I have used star to read past problems, but am having trouble 
with this particular tar file.
I have placed the tar file on my anonymous ftp server at:

ftp://ftp.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/download/KLCH20050916.tar.Z

This is very important data to the Climate community and I have several 
files with this problem from this day.  Any help would be greatly 
appreciated.

Thanks,
Alan.
