[Datastream #FTU-518516]: Converting IGRA radiosonde date

Hi Vicente,

re:

We don't have such a decoder, sorry.

I don't think that we identified any decoding software for the user that
posed the question represented in the IDV mail archive item that you
found.  I did see that user had figured out how to convert the IGRA data
to .fsl format, but that code was not shared with us, sorry.

Cheers,

Tom
