Subject:	SGP/SMOS/E8 - Reprocess: Incorrect wind directions from E8 SMOS
DataStreams:	sgp1smosE8.a0, sgp30smosE8.a1
Description:	When the Wind Monitor was changed at E8 for scheduled PM, the replacement sensor was incorrectly wired to the data logger. It did not effect the wind speed readings, but wind directions had E and W reversed. Thus winds from 15 deg were reported as being from 345 deg, and vice-versa, and winds from 165 deg were reported as being from 195 degrees, and vice-versa.
