This mode is designed to provide a survey mode, with standard temporal        
resolution and spectral resolution.  Both low-frequency and high-frequency    
WFR measurements are made, using a "toggle" mode, although a fixed gain       
(maximum) rather than an auto gain mode is required until a future software   
update.  Dust detection is included. Langmuir Probe sweeps are performed      
every 640 seconds. A Sounder measurement replaces the HFR analyses every 640  
seconds.

The HFR is in a modified "Composite Survey" mode, which now includes          
both auto- and cross-correlations for H1.

Bands ABC require 3.16 sec to complete, H1 requires 5.47 sec, and H2 requires 
1.46 sec for a total of  10.09 sec per sweep. However, the time between       
analyses is set to 16 seconds to reduce the bit rate, and also to synchronize 
with the 640-second sounder operations.  Every 640 seconds the HFR normal     
analyses are replaced by a Sounder analysis.  The Sounder operation has a     
duration of approximately 40 seconds.  This Sounder analysis is defined by:
