M2M Tools may not work correctly with older versions of Matlab

Hi all, just wanted to share that I was having issues using the M2M Matlab toolkit with Matlab version 2020a. Basically, data was coming in inconsistently with regards to quality/availability. Updating to the latest version of Matlab solved the issue.

The M2M tools are great and convenient for quick data acquisition and user-processing. They’ve been helpful in grabbing observations in near-real time while on a cruise near the pioneer array, for example. Highly recommend. And if the default code don’t supply all of the desired parameters, some tinkering with the function scripts can offer more. Beats grabbing the entire netCDF file.
