.... you'll note that the maximum temperature has been suppressed by
the software tonight (12th) - presumably some sort of internal quality
check has kicked in:-

201008121750 AAXX 12184 03862 15881 /3112 10176 20111 30167 40179
53002 60002 91750 333 1//// 55307 20921 81/57=

For those that don't know the code, it is the first group after the
'333' indicator.
