There are many versions of the radar and file format and, unfortunately, the newer documentation is not publicly available. It seems that VSpec was changed to TotSpec in the file format version 3.5:
The total spectrum is identical to the vertical polarisation spectrum for single polarized or LDR-mode radars. In the case of dual polarized STSR-mode radars, this spectrum represents the combined spectrum given in equation (2.11.13).
There is some code in rpgpy related to the dual polarized STSR-mode radars.
read_rpg provides 'HSpec', linked to horizontal polarization but 'VSpec', linked to vertical polarization, is omitted. This variable is also specified in the RPG software documentation (https://www.radiometer-physics.de/download/PDF/Cloud%20Radar/RPG-FMCW-Operation%20and%20SW_Manual.pdf). Could you add this variable in the next version? It would be so helpful.
