SGP/SONDE/C1 - Possibly bad pressure sensor or operator data entry error

There is a discrepency between the surface pressure and temperature data entered by the 
operator and that recorded by the THWAPS.  Review of the raw data from the radiosonde shows 
that the pressure was periodically varying by as much as 12 hPa (~988 to 1000)in the 
time period before launch.  The operator entry of 998.2 is at the high end of this range - 
the concurrent THWAPS reading was about 988.4 at the low end.  The operator entered 
temperature 6.2 degC is considerably higher than the THWAPS value of 1.8.  The pre-flight log 
entry for this sounding is missing from the OMIS database.  If not for the extremely 
unstable pressure reading I would have assumed this was an operator error.  It will take some 
more research to figure out what is going on.
