Variances applying to this archive                                            
==================================                                            
                                                                              
This archive does not contain data for Subsurface Sounding modes SS1, SS2, SS4
and SS5. SS2 data have been already range-processed on board and thus they can
be readily used in their original form, found in the Level 1b archive. The    
user is warned, however, that on-board processing for SS2 produces data of low
quality that should not be used.                                              
                                                                              
The format of the various SSx modes is very different. There are 45           
observations acquired in mode SS1, 44 in mode SS4 and 3 in mode SS5, and they 
all belong to the early part of the science phase. As of today, there are 7698
observations acquired in mode SS3.                                            
                                                                              
For all these reasons, a standard processing chain producing Level 2 SS1, SS4 
and SS5 data has been given a lower priority, although it will eventually be  
implemented to complete the archive.
