https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/113.075

Summary
This data set contains data from the X-Band Profiling Radar (XPR) that was at
locations coincident with the MIPS profiling system during the second PLOWS
field season. Data are available for 16-17 and 23 January, 5, 9, 14 and 21
February and 2, 3 and 9 March 2010. The data were provided by the University
of Alabama-Huntsville and are in a binary data format. Please contact Dustin
