NOAA P-3 Lower Fuselage C-Band Radar Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/541.016

Summary
This data set contains data from the NOAA P-3 aircraft lower fuselage C-band
radar for its flights during the VORTEX-SE 2017 field season over the
southeastern United States. Each sweep is one 360 degree rotation and the
antenna rotates twice per minute. The data are in the RVP-900 SIGMET format
which can be converted to cfradial using the NCAR RadxConvert software.
