The sample header sent was from the PLOWS field campaign. Sounding data from this field campaign can be found here:
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/master_lists/generated/plows/

under "Upper Air: Radiosonde".

It appears there were three sources of soundings for this campaign, MISS, NWS, and Univ. of Mo. We should test any capability using all three sources, however the EOL Sounding Composite (ESC) format is well-defined and should be ubiquitous across datasets.

Some capability implemented in #635 should be useful here.
