Subject:
TWP/MMCR/C1 - Reflectivities too high
DataStreams:twpmmcrmomC1.b1
Description:
Recent statistical analysis comparing the MMCR on Manus with the MMCRs on Nauru and Darwin 
along with Cloudsat suggest there is an approximately +10 dB bias to the reflectivites 
on Manus.

Analysis is currently underway to determine the source of this bias and whether it is 
applicable to all modes and ranges.

  • Reflectivity(Reflectivity)

Subject:
TWP/MMCR/C1 - Reduced sensitivity due to LNA failure
DataStreams:twpmmcrmomC1.b1
Description:
The low noise amplifier (LNA) failed resulting in a loss of approximately 26 dB of 
receiver gain and sensitivity.

The reflectivity values should be correct but sensitivity is reduced.
