      READAIS.C is a simple example program intended to convert the
      binary AIS data set into a human readable ASCII format.  The
      goals of the program are to illustrate how to access the data
      files and to provide something useful for those who wish to
      output the data to other software such as a spread sheet.

      The AIS data set is stored in a simple binary format. Each data
      record is naturally aligned for performance reasons as well as
      compatibility between third party software.  The record
      structure is show below.

             ------------------------
             | Status | FREQ | DATA |
             ------------------------

      Status - the instrument settings and time of capture.

      Freq - the transmit frequency for the sounding event.


      Data - a time series of 80 consecutive measurements captured
             directly following the sounding event.  The units of
             measure are V**2/m**2/Hz.

      The software has been tested on various platforms to help
      insure platform independence.  For more information see
      SOFTWARE/SOFTINFO.TXT."
