Example: You are going to deploy the sonde for 2 weeks, collecting a set of
readings every 15 minutes. You start at 6:00 PM on July 17, 1996 and end the
sampling at 6:00 PM on July 31, 1996. The site is Clear Lake, near the spillway,
and you want to log all of the readings to a single file CLRLAKE3.
