I have a text file consisting of a recurring sequence, made up of 4 header lines followed by 37 lines of data, then another 4 header lines, and so on (see attached txt file). One complication is that each set of headers is slightly different since it incorporates varying numbers. I want to delete all of these header lines and be left with the remaining data.

There is no end-of-file in the file you posted. Normally, I would use this code:
fidi = fopen('Bruno Rodriguez a160628.dat','r');
k1 = 1;
while ~feof(fidi)
data(k1) = textscan(fidi, repmat('%f',1,20), 'HeaderLines',4, 'CollectOutput',1, 'EndOfLine','\r\n');
fseek(fidi,0,0);
k1 = k1 + 1;
end
With the file you posted, it is necessary to detect the last record differently. I used fgetl and strfind, copying part of the last header manually to the strfind call.
This works:
fidi = fopen('Bruno Rodriguez a160628.dat','r');
lastrecord = 0; % Initialise ‘lastrecord’
k1 = 1; % Initialise Counter
while ~feof(fidi)
data(k1) = textscan(fidi, repmat('%f',1,20), 'HeaderLines',4, 'CollectOutput',1, 'EndOfLine','\r\n');
if lastrecord % If Previous Was ‘lastrecord’, Stop
break
end
fseek(fidi,0,0); % Restart At New Position
firstline = fgetl(fidi); % Read First Line
lastrecord = strfind(firstline, 'SJSU_Sodar_DiabloCanyon 06/28/2016 23:50:00'); % Find Last Record Section
fseek(fidi, -1, 0); % Back Up One Line So ‘textscan’ Will Read It
k1 = k1 + 1; % Increment Counter
end

Is the "SJSU" always going to be the same? If so then you could perhaps take advantage of the CommentStyle of textscan()
