Subject:	SGP/WACR/C1 - Reflectivity and Height Offsets
DataStreams:	sgpwacrC1.b1, sgpwacrspeccmaskxpolC1.a0, sgpwacrspeccmaskcopolC1.a0
Description:	The instrument vendor has informed us of a range (height) offset of 13 m and has provided an updated reflectivity calibration. All values reported for 'Reflectivity' are approximately 3 dB too low. In addition, the Reflectivity in the first and fourth range gates (starting from the surface) need to be further corrected by an additional 2.7 and -0.9 dB, respectively. The 'height' field values are 13.33 m too low. The data will be reprocessed to correct these problems. Update: The sgpwacrC1.b1 data were reprocessed to correct the height and reflectivity offsets. The corrected data were archived 20100910-20100915.
Measurements:	sgpwacrspeccmaskcopolC1.a0: Cloud, reflectivity, at altitude(Reflectivity) heights sgpwacrspeccmaskxpolC1.a0: Cloud, reflectivity, at altitude(Reflectivity) heights sgpwacrC1.b1: Cloud, reflectivity, at altitude(Reflectivity) heights

Description:	The instrument vendor has informed us of a range (height) offset of 13 m and has provided an updated reflectivity calibration. All values reported for 'Reflectivity' are approximately 1.5 dB too low. In addition, the Reflectivity in the first and fourth range gates (starting from the surface) need to be further corrected by an additional 2.7 and -0.9 dB, respectively. The 'height' field values are 13.33 m too low. The data will be reprocessed to correct these problems.
