PVC/MWR3C/M1 - Radiometer operating with old software
DataStreams:pvcmwr3cM1.b1
Description:
Data between 7/1 and 7/25 should be disregarded because the radiometer wasn't setup 
properly.

Subject:
PVC/MWR3C/M1 - W-band receiver operating without thermal control
DataStreams:pvcmwr3cM1.b1
Description:
The 89 GHz receiver was operating with the thermal control loop to open. The problem 
affects the 89 GHz data only and the retrievals.
Measurements:pvcmwr3cM1.b1:
  • Liquid water path best-estimate value, hourly mean(lwp)
  • 89.0 GHz sky brightness temperature(tbsky89)
  • Water vapor, precipitable, column-integrated on isobaric grid, from RUC model(pwv)

Subject:
PVC/MWR3C/M1 - Dew formation on window
DataStreams:pvcmwr3cM1.b1
Description:
The K-band receiver was showing signs of dew accumulation on the lens. This happened 
during night and early morning (~5:00-12:00 UTC). On 8/28 the receiver was repositioned to be 
better aligned with the dewblower outlet.
Measurements:pvcmwr3cM1.b1:
  • 30.0 GHz sky brightness temperature(tbsky30)
  • Radiation, longwave, brightness temperature, 23.8 GHz(tbsky23)
  • Liquid water path best-estimate value, hourly mean(lwp)
