S-PolKa Radar, fully corrected, final moments data in cfRadial format
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/347.017

Summary
This data set consists of merged cfRadial format, hourly files of S-PolKa
radar data taken continuously during the DYNAMO (Dynamics of the Madden-Julian
Oscillation) project.

Be aware that one day averages almost 7 Gigabytes of data. Each order can
contain a maximum of 16 GB of data (~2.5 days). For very large orders, it may
be preferable for you to access these data via a loaner external hard drive.
Please email the Point of Contact to request these data.
