Platform/Measurement:
 What level data: (raw,a0,a1,b1,c1 etc):  All

    What location was the data collected at:     CF

    Period of time in question
  Begin Date   10/03/95   Time   XX:XX:XX (GMT)
  End Date     10/03/95   Time   09:40:20 (GMT)

 Data should be labeled:
 ___  questionable                      _X_  All data fields affected
 _X_  incorrect                         ___  Only some data fields affected
 ___  wrong calibration
 ___  others

 Discussion of Problem:  It appears as if the ground station started to
 receive data from a foreign sonde (i.e., not the sonde originally being
 tracked) at an altitude of about 14.0 km.  At this point the RH signal
 drops out, and both the pressure and temperature signals are noisy and
 look unnatural.


Other observations/measurements impacted by this problem:


Suggested Corrections of the Problem: (e.g. change calibration factor and
recompute, flag data with this comment, etc.)
