    Instrument samples temperature and pressure alternately, therefore interval 
    between  2  consecutive  pressure  values is 1 hour.  Clock lost 50 seconds 
    over 172 days 16 hours 0 minutes 50 seconds; original  cycle  interval  and 
    time  values have been corrected.  Instrumental drift large - approximately 
    3001 millibars.
