Apologies in advance for the brutality, but your code is absolutely abonimable, and does not even compile.

Your sample output data does not match your description, so it is hard to figure out what you want done.

That said, here is a starting point for getting started parsing the file.

Feel free to post questions if you do not understand the code, or the reasons it is coded that way.

use strict;
use warnings;
 
open(my $inp, "test.mcp_list") or die "Could not open mcp_list: $!";

my @station_cols = qw|station mcccdelay std    cccoeff  ccstd   pol t0
+_times delay_time1 delay_time2|;
my @stations;
while (<$inp>){
  my @line = split;  
  if (9 == @line){
      push @stations, {map {$station_cols[$_] => $line[$_]} 0..$#stati
+on_cols };
      next;
  }
  my $numObs = @stations;
  if ($line[0] eq "PDE"){
      my ($PDE,$year,$month,$day,$hour,$minute,$second,$eqlat,$eqlong,
+$eqdepth,undef, $mag) 
              = @line;
     printf "%2d%2d%2d%2d%2d %s %s%7.3f %s%8.3f %s%6.2f %s %s %s %s \n
+",
        $year%100,$month,$day,$hour,$minute,$second,"0.00",$eqlat,"0.0
+0",
        $eqlong,"0.00",$eqdepth,"0.00",$numObs,$mag, "0.00", "\n";
  }

}
print "Done\n";
