"Actually, that chart showed radiosondes gave pretty similar results as satellites. "

Up until they don't. They have to "manipulate their data" again. Pay no attention to the part that says, "data from actual thermometers", cuz the dirty little secret is that the satellites don't use them.

A close-up on their period of overlap shows the recent divergence even more clearly:

The RSS data simply fail to show the recent warming which is plain to see in the balloon data — the data from actual thermometers.

It’s also interesting to look at the difference between the two (with no offset). This suggests that divergence starts even earlier, but only became pronounced in the last several years

Overall, the satellite data have a distinct downward trend which is contradicted by the data from actual thermometers.
