Subject:
TWP/VCEIL/C2 - Reprocess: Incorrect serial_number and sum_backscatter fields
DataStreams:twpvceil25kC2.b1
Description:
Attribute serial_number: In most cases, this field is not representative of the actual 
serial number of the instrument because the value did not change when an instrument changed 
locations or was replaced with a spare.
   
Variable sum_backscatter: An out-of-range condition for the "sum of detected and 
normalized backscatter" was reported as 0 instead of missing (-9999). The valid range is 0 - 
0.0999 /srad.
   
This DQR also applies to a1 level data.
