!
! Inputs:
!   [freq]      radar frequency (GHz)
!   [D]         discrete drop sizes (um)
!   [N]         discrete concentrations (cm^-3 um^-1)
!   [nsizes]    number of discrete drop sizes
!   [k2]        |K|^2, -1=use frequency dependent default 
!   [tt]        hydrometeor temperature (C)
!   [ice]       indicates volume consists of ice
!   [xr]        perform Rayleigh calculations?
!   [qe]        if using a mie table, these contain ext/sca ...
!   [qs]        ... efficiencies; otherwise set to -1
!   [rho_e]     medium effective density (kg m^-3) (-1 = pure)
!
! Outputs:
!   [z_eff]     unattenuated effective reflectivity factor (mm^6/m^3)
!   [z_ray]     reflectivity factor, Rayleigh only (mm^6/m^3)
!   [kr]        attenuation coefficient (db km^-1)
