Notes specific to this disk:
============================
Data from 11 July to 27 Aug 1998

The missing soundings from 15:54 UT 20 July to 00:06 21 July,
08:18 UT 2 Aug to 20:54 2 Aug,
15:00 UT 20 Aug,
15:30 UT 20 Aug,
and lack of soundings from from 27 Aug to 7 Sept are a result of
full disks.
The High power transmitter was also off for a large part of the
time due to a fan problem.

General notes:
==============

The data are from the Tromso dynasonde.

The soundings are stored in directories according to the month of recording.
In some cases the soundings for a month are spread over more than one directory
e.g. DEC1994a and DEC1994B. 

In the listings of soundings (files with extension .DIR) the dates and
times were read from the soundings and should be as accurate as the 
dynasonde PC clock at the time of data taking. A few files which show a
date as 19700101 have a corrupted time/date.

The soundings are listed according to type in files B-MODES.DIR, I-MODES.DIR,
K-MODES.DIR, P-MODES.DIR, as well as a total listing in LIST-ALL.DIR

The CALIBS.DIR shows where calibration soundings (with file extension 
NOT *.?_? , usually of type *.?r?) are stored. 

The GAPS-x.TXT files show missing soundings (or repeated sounding numbers)
for the four various modes of sounding (b,i,k,p).
