*  Name:
*     palPvobs

*  Purpose:
*     Position and velocity of an observing station.

*  Language:
*     Starlink ANSI C

*  Type of Module:
*     Library routine

*  Invocation:
*     palPvobs( double p, double h, double stl, double pv[6] )

*  Arguments:
*     p = double (Given)
*        Latitude (geodetic, radians).
*     h = double (Given)
*        Height above reference spheroid (geodetic, metres).
*     stl = double (Given)
*        Local apparent sidereal time (radians).
*     pv = double[ 6 ] (Returned)
*        position/velocity 6-vector (AU, AU/s, true equator
*                                    and equinox of date).

*  Description:
*     Returns the position and velocity of an observing station.

*  Notes:
*     - The WGS84 reference ellipsoid is used.
