Review of automated quality assurance for June 1996

Description:
Overview of automated quality assurance runs for June 1996 by Mark Shafer:
PROBLEM SITES:
--------------
BUTL SRAD       Readings dropped below -1 at night (edge of instrument
                error).  No trouble-ticket was issued, but I believe it
                was later investigated.  Errors appear minimal and
                should not affect daytime readings significantly.

ACME PRES       From 3rd-6th received several warning and suspect flags.
                No record of trouble-ticket, but problems stopped after
                the 6th.

REDR TB10       Numerous flags from the 16th-21st.  Monthly visual
                inspection indicated a large warm bias, and some readings
                were more than 30 deg F different than TS10.

NORM TS05       4 deg C warm bias during month, ongoing through July.

* any of these sites should be OK to use with the information contained
  in the corresponding QA files.  I'm just trying to give a "heads up"
  for sites which seemed to have persistent problems in case some
  particular readings slipped past QA thresholds.
Suggestions: 
Users of these data should review the automatically generated 
quality assurance files.
