[wxqc] Madis QC checks

[Sam Drinkard]

Steve, at the bottom of the page, there is a list of the QC letter 
designators used.  They tell what action has been taken, but a "V" is a 
reading that is OK.  Here they are.

Z = "No QC applied"
C = "Passed QC stage 1"
S = "Passed QC stages 1 and 2"
V = "Passed QC stages 1, 2 and 3"
X = "Failed QC stage 1"
Q = "Passed QC stage 1, but failed stages 2 or 3 "
G = "Included in accept list"
B = "Included in reject list"

I suggest a little reading on the subject of QC from the various places, 
one of which is on the CWOP main page, and of course, the link from that 
page  http://www-sdd.fsl.noaa.gov/MADIS/madis_sfc_qc.html which shows 
all the goodies and how they fit together.
