NCAR S-PolKa radar time series data, S-band, Marshall field site
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/100.031

Summary
Selected time periods of time series data collected by the S-PolKa radar at
the Marshall field site in Colorado. S-PolKa is usually run at the Marshall
field site for testing and maintenance purposes so the data in this dataset
contains data from various different instrument states. If you would like to
use this data set for research purposes, please contact us first at the email
address below. Time series data is the raw I/Q data collected by the radar. It
will never change and is therefore not quality controlled.
