Subject:
SGP/KASACR/C1 - Reprocess: Intermittent missing spectra data
DataStreams:sgpkasacrspeccmaskxpolC1.a0, sgpkasacrspeccmaskcopolC1.a0
Description:
Raw spectra file sizes were being unintentionally limited in length due to an entry in a 
radar configuration file, causing spectra file splits during data collection.  However, 
the corresponding moments files were not splitting. During the ingest and cloud masking 
processing, when spectra files were being matched with corresponding raw moments files, only 
the first spectra file in a vertically-pointing scan period was matching with a moments 
file.  This prevented the remaining size-limited spectra files from being ingested.  
These spectra files do exist in raw format at the archive.
Suggestions: 
Reprocessing will be done to match the remaining raw spectra files to the appropriate 

raw moments files and create ingested and masked spectra data.
