FIR.DAT format

Has anybody any idea what the format of each of the fir sections is in FIR.DAT?

 

For example the RJTG section starts -

 

RJTG,26,21.000000,125.416667,50.083333,165.000000,RJ00003,35.541667,145.208334

 

I think I've worked out that the the last two (35.541667,145.208334) show where RJTG should be shown on the map.

 

The 21.000000,125.416667,50.083333,165.000000 seem refer to the extremities of the FIR.

 

The 26 following the FIR name is the number of coordinate sets following.

 

Following the start line are just the coordinates of each part of the FIR boundary.

 

I don't know what the RJ00003 is though.

 

Any help appreciated.
