James,

I got the CQT ASOS-commissioning announcement Friday, and have updated
the searchable archive with your entry.

I don't see any WMO station tables with 74626 in them, however, White Sands
does have several station IDs in that block. I'll check with them to see
if its one of theirs.

Thanks,


Steve Chiswell
