TWP/MWR/C3 - Instrument failure, Power outage
DataStreams:twpmwrC3.00, twpmwrlosC3.a1, twpmwrlosC3.b1, twpmwrtipC3.a1
Description:
A lightning strike sent the MWR offline. The radiometer suffered extensive damage, was 
removed from the site and sent to the vendor for repair. A spare radiometer was sent to the 
TWP/C3 site and was installed on 12/07. However, some hardaware communication issues 
prevented data collection until 12/10.
