[wxqc] Re :Data spike on WA4IKQ

[Philip Gladstone]

I took a look at the raw data, and it seems that the flaky samples came 
from the MADIS feed of data. The 1950 on 2006-08-30 readings seem dodgy. 
The same anomaly does not appear in the data that I pull directly from 
findU.

In some cases, the spike shows up in the analysis, but sometimes (I 
guess) MADIS filters it out.
