! abstract:  For gps refractivity observations, this routine
!              a) reads obs assigned to given mpi task (geographic region),
!              b) simulates obs from guess,
!              c) apply some quality control to obs,
!              d) load weight and innovation arrays used in minimization
!              e) collects statistics for runtime diagnostic output
!              f) writes additional diagnostic information to output file
