Speed and direction end early, at line 1233 (1800 27 Mar 93).
Approximately 10% of the speeds were at or below the current
meter's threshold (1 cm/sec) and have been set to the threshold
value. 

This record contains two temperature series, which have been
designated temp 1 and temp 2. The resolution of temp 1 is better
than that of temp 2, and its mean value is different. The PI
suggests that both be made available and that the user make an
independent judgement as to which series is more accurate.
