    R2/F[YYYY][MM][DD][HH]S[NNNNNNN][CPS].CSV

        R2: Receiver number. 
           We used three receivers (R1, R2, and R3) for the special radio soundings.
           All are the same type of Meisei RD08AC system.
	   The receiver R2 was used in all the CPS radiosonde observations. 

        [YYYY][MM][DD][HH]: Launch date and time

        [NNNNNNN]: Serial number of radiosonde.

        [CPS]:

            None: PTU data (taken by RS-11G radiosonde)
            CPS: CPS cloud particle data
