Subject:
GRW/WACR/M1 - Coherence Filter Contamination
DataStreams:grwwacrM1.b1
Description:
The coherence filter (software) that was added to the WACR under BCR-01500 was causing 
occasional contamination to WACR data.  This was exhibited in the first 2000 m of range by 
streaking in the data over a period of time. It didn't occur often and when it did, it is 
quite obvious looking at the plots.  

On 4/2/2010 at 12:00 UTC, the coherence filter was modified to preclude working on signals 
with a SNR greater than 60 dB.  The vendor thinks this will solve the problem.
