Technician Notes:
Flow problems with Ultrafine CN continue.
Offset in ATWH.
All PMS probe sample rates changed to 1sps preflight.
Nose DSM analog spikes at 19:27:07, 20:27:41 to 20:27:48

Project Manager Notes:
Changed FCN offset in flow to match U of H XCNCOLD (-0.254)
XCNHOT/XCNCOLD/XUCN not set up for voltage output; all preceding data bad on RAF data files (OK on their records)
