The direction and pressure sensors of this current meter failed.
The data they produced are not useful and have not been included
here. This record contains only speed. There is a brief episode
in the speed series on 19 Aug 92 that has the appearance of a
rotorcounter failure.

We have assigned a nominal depth of 600 m to this record.
