Code still does not deal with the 'id' conversions accurately. The problem is that the data stored in the packet is only the partial id and the documentation does not explain how to convert this properly. I spent sometime (a day) combing through the source code to see if I could find how this conversion is done but couldn't find how it is done.

MAXI_TEST also has flux for a cross-matched source in low, medium and high bands. There is no equivalent for these in the core schema, so I have stored these as 'source_flux_{band}' and 'background_flux_{band}' temporarily.

There are also MAXI known sources in the archive. The last one was sent 24/05/02. So maybe we are interested in converting these too?

Made an educated guess for MAXI_UNKNOWN trigger id based on the available data and comparing with text notices, it would be helpful if there was more binary data to cross-check the accuracy. I couldn't do this with MAXI_TEST since there are no text notices for those.
