Subject:
SGP/SIRS/E18 - Possible PSP dome contamination
DataStreams:sgpsirsE18.00, sgpsirs20sE18.a0, sgpsirsE18.b1
Description:
Downwelling shortwave hemispheric (DSH) measurements did not agree with derived DSH 
readings during the morning hours up to 1500GMT each clear day.   PM cleaning on 2/16 2250 
revealed nothing other than dirty water spots.  A dirty or ice covered PSP dome may have been 
the cause, clearing itself before the PM crew arrived.
Suggestions: 
Data during clear skies between 0000-1500GMT are suspect.
