[idvusers] older synoptic data

Hi there,

I am trying to get synoptic data using the IDV Data Chooser tab. I chose Observations --> Point on the left hand side, select Synoptic Data as Data Type at the top and connect to adde.ucar.edu. In the Relative Times tab, I get a choice from Most Recent to 50 Most Recent. However, the time period I am interested in is about 3 month ago and is not covered by the 50 Most Recent.

I therefore tried to use the Absolute Times tab but it seems to give me only the most 5 recent sondes. After setting the absolute time (e.g. 1-30 May) in the Properties window a black box is drawn in the time window but no available sonde data are displayed which I would be able to select.

I am not sure whether I am missing something here, but I tried for ages and did not manage to get any data older than the '50 most recent'. I hope I am making my problem clear enough. If not, let me know. Any help is much appreciated.

Best wishes,
Sebastian
