TWP/CSPHOT/C2 - Problem with sensor head
DataStreams:twpcsphotsizeC2.a1, twpcsphotaotfiltqaC2.a1, twpcsphottotalpfn1C2.a1,

Description:
Data are suspect due to problems with instrument.  There was a broken strap for the sensor 
head. Also, data are only available later in the day, after hour 0 GMT for all days 
3/18/10 to 4/20/2010, possibly related to problems with the cables and/or sensor head.
