I'm not sure what you're doing... but here are some tips about the parts I
can understand.

1) you don't need to use "which" as much.  This works fine:
     stnID <- stnid[!duplicated(stnid)]

2) "which" works within a for loop

3) Do you realize that "stnID" is shorter after you removed duplicates?  I
think it might be the wrong length for your loop function.

4) You can loop over things directly rather than their index.  E.g.:
     for(stn in stnID) print(stn)
