RS-80A sonde launched with reference sonde.

trouble with launch included loosing first balloon (with chute) due to
a snapped tether.

second attempt resulted in balloon burstig in our faces

third attempt successfull! Took data during both ascent and descent - and it
looks reasonable other than some noise.

getting this one in flight, it temporarily stopped collecting data between
640-616mb. Then at again 601(but for a shorter period this time). Otherwise, 
decent flight.

This sounding was done in conjunction with the reference radiosonde flight.  High winds made launching difficult, but still possible. Signal strength changed from default to 406MHz. 
There was a lot of noise from ~170mb util termination.  sigal strength was unstable and some of the data was odd.

146: SOUNDING, Site IHOP, Wed 12-Jun-2002 18:19:41 GMT, sonde data drop outs

It seems we are running into some sort of interference on 
a regular basis with the sondes. The signal turns into a
sort of buzzing noise and the raw data and 10s data stop
updating for 30 secs or so. This seems to occur most often
above 500 mb, but not always. The signal then returns and
all the data begin updating again. Usually this only happens
once per flight.

Lou came in this afternoon to replace the pre-amp of the souding system and
did a test flight. The signal was 88 dB before launch, which is a few dBs 
higher. When the flight reached 100mb, the signal strength still has
40dB, which is much higher than the old pre-amp.

lost signals at about 780mb, the signal came back about 30 second later,
but the # of sate's tracked by gnd rcvr is zero. So, afterwards, there
are no wind data coming in.

Signal was lost completely at the end of the flight.  Had to terminate early.  When initiating flight, glass did not have measurements for Surface data, tried to reboot, but had the same problem second time around.  Had to manually enter the surface data onto screen.  (Got it from Campbell)

The sonde hit the ground when it took off due to the gusty (~15 m/s).
Helium is 34 ft^3, it might need a little more next time when gusty occurs.
The raw pressure showed increasing with height around 580mb for tens of seconds.
It might be caught by some downdraft. doesn't look like the sonde having probelm
caused by the touch-down when it was released.

Warning!!. the log file is not accurate because the program was terminated
	   accidently before the file was saved. Therefore, the surface data
	   and sonde data are not correct. However, the terminated height and

good flight, helium 35 ft^3, a couple of bad raw data, which caused the skew-t
looked weired. I tried to delete these data points in M file and reporcess 
the D file usig "sounding analysis", but it did not produce right D file. 
A sudden pressure jump about 40mb was recorded in M file around 890mb.

--------
Ned was doing a reference sonde prior to the launch so signal was changed from default to 405.325 MHz.  Good flight except roughly last 10 minutes Signal strength was not stable, some noise may occur, because az deg. changed rapidly and not able to point antenae in correct direction.

poor flight, rather gusty, balloon struggled to lift because it was not inflatedcorrectly, as a result of this, sonde hit ground during lift.  Wind data was sporadic and is skeptical.  However, 10 s data seems to be working.

nice flight but it's really hard to hold ballon in such high wind.
10 s data have problem (T, RH, P) although raw data look good.
the regulator was broken, will try to use the new one for next ballon.
Glass has problem, reboot computer and recycle the RX power solve it.

good launch

33: SOUNDING, Site IHOP, Tue 21-May-2002 03:28:19 GMT, Sounding failed
Attempted sounding at 3UT (10PM Local).
=======================================

Attempted to launch sounding at 9:30pm in support of Raman calibration.

Error reported in GLASS Labview software:  Sending coef failed!!!

Retried numerous times, rebooted 4 times, reloaded software
from distribution disk, tried the original coefts disks
and a backup coefts disks, tried a second sonde, 
checked cables in back to serial port and expander box,
tried to diagnose problems over the phone to Ned and Mike, 
and even entered the coeffts manually.

Nothing worked so abandoned attempt after an hour.
Time to go home!
