DataStreams:	pyetsicldmaskM1.a1, pyetsimovieM1.a1, pyetsiskycoverM1.b1, pyetsiskyimageM1.a1
Description:	The TSI was not aligned with true north.

Subject:	PYE/TSI/M1 - water in lens
DataStreams:	pyetsiM1.00, pyetsicldmaskM1.a1, pyetsimovieM1.a1, pyetsiskycoverM1.b1, pyetsiskyimageM1.a1
Description:	The lower half of the TSI images were blurry due to water in the camera lens and/or filter. The problem was corrected when both were cleaned.
Measurements:	pyetsiM1.00: Raw data stream - documentation not supported(raw) pyetsiskyimageM1.a1: JPG data stream - documentation not supported(JPEG data stream - documentation not yet available) pyetsiskycoverM1.b1: Pixel count: number opaque in horizon area(region.horizon.count.opaque) Pixel count: number total in horizon area(region.horizon.count) Pixel count: number total in sun circle(region.sun.count) Pixel count: number opaque in sun circle(region.sun.count.opaque) Pixel count: camera and sun strip mask(count.mask) Pixel count: number total thin(count.thin) Pixel count: number thin in zenith circle(region.zenith.count.thin) Pixel count: number total between horizon and processed circle(count.sub.proczen) Pixel count: number opaque in zenith circle(region.zenith.count.opaque) Pixel count: number thin in horizon area(region.horizon.count.thin) Pixel count: number thin in sun circle(region.sun.count.thin) Pixel count: number total indeterminant(count.unknown) Percentage thin cloud(percent.thin) Pixel count: number total opaque(count.opaque) Pixel count: number total in zenith circle(region.zenith.count) Pixel count: number below horizon in image(count.sub.horz) Pixel count: box, outside mirror area(count.box) Pixel count: number total in processed circle(count.sky) Relative \'strength\' of direct sun(sun.strength) Percent opaque cloud(percent.opaque) pyetsicldmaskM1.a1: PNG data stream - documentation not supported(png) pyetsimovieM1.a1: (MPEG data stream - documentation not yet available)

Subject:	PYE/SONDE/M1 - Broken RH sensor
DataStreams:	pyesondewnpnM1.b1
Description:	One of the RH sensors on this radiosonde was bad. The RH oscillates rapidly between near 0 and ambient up to approximately 11 km. The near-zero values are incorrect.
Measurements:	pyesondewnpnM1.b1: Relative humidity inside the instrument enclosure(rh) Surface dew point temperature(dp)

Subject:	PYE/SONDE/M1 - Bad temperature and RH
DataStreams:	pyesondewnpnM1.b1
Description:	The temperature appears to be approximately 10 degC too high during the entire sounding. This also causes the RH to be too low. Most likely the problem was a bad temperature sensor.
Measurements:	pyesondewnpnM1.b1: Relative humidity inside the instrument enclosure(rh) Surface dew point temperature(dp) Dry bulb temperature(tdry)

Subject:	PYE/SONDE/M1 - Bad RH sensor
DataStreams:	pyesondewnpnM1.b1
Description:	The RH sensor heating circuit failed on this sounding. RH values during the first part of the sounding oscillate between a reasonable value and a very low value. It appears that (a) the heating was out of phase, and (b) incorrect values were being reported during the first 10 minutes or so of flight.
Measurements:	pyesondewnpnM1.b1: Relative humidity inside the instrument enclosure(rh) Surface dew point temperature(dp)

Subject:	PYE/SONDE/M1 - Bad RH sensor
DataStreams:	pyesondewnpnM1.b1
Description:	Two problems here - failure of the RH sensor heating circuit and a bad RH sensor.
Measurements:	pyesondewnpnM1.b1: Relative humidity inside the instrument enclosure(rh) Surface dew point temperature(dp)
