[wxqc] Missing error data for CW5851

[Philip Gladstone]

Fred,

The 2/96 does mean that, but the data is somewhat noisy, and if the 
'error' readings are not consecutive in time, then the script assumes 
that there is noise, and doesn't bother to report them. This cleans up 
the clutter significantly. You are then left with periods of time when 
there are continuous 'errors'. These (typically) bear some level of 
investigation.
