warn about soh and log in water current section of fdsnIdentifiers #23

Open crotwell opened 7 years ago

I thought I had posted this before, but can't find it, so sorry if a repeat.

In the Water Current section of the FDSNIdentifiers document, add

Do not use SOH or LOG as these conflict with widely used state of health and logging channel identifiers.

This is already written in the beginning of section 3.

Right, but because this is a special exception to this specific instrument, and the only case in which an instrument does not determine its acceptable band/gain codes, I feel it would be best to add it directly to the water current section.

Got it, add and additional note about the special exceptions of LOG and SOH to the "O" instrument where they would potentially collide. 👍
