Subject:
SGP/SONDE/C1 - Surface pressure incorrect
DataStreams:sgpsondewnpnC1.b1
Description:
I think the operator inadvdertently mistyped a digit when entering the surface pressure 
value.  The value entered is 975.6 hPa but the value shown in the raw data file at launch 
is 972.6.  As a result, the absolute altitudes in this sounding will be slightly incorrect 
as will be the ascent rate during the first 30 seconds of flight.
Suggestions: 
Recalculate altitudes from corrected pressure at surface.  If desired, I can 

reprocess this sounding with the correct surface pressure.
