24 GHz full path atten, in dB:
   15, 30 and 90 deg El angle 0.89  0.46  0.23
24 GHz Sky Temp, in Kelvins:
   15, 30 and 90 deg El angle  51.9   29.5   16.6
Wind direction is degrees from true North, speed in knots.
Attenuation dB/km is at 24 GHz and includes effects of oxygen and water vapor.
Condensed water vapor is not included in attenuation.
Sky temp includes contributions from the Universe background, oxygen and water vapor.
N-units are Refractivity with N = 10^6 x (n-1) where n is the index of refraction.
N-Gradient is N-units per km, with -40 typical at lower elevations, i.e., the 4/3 Earth.
N-Gradients more negative than -157 support forming a duct, and are marked 'D'.
