NIM/MFRSR/M1 - Instrument not shading properly

Shadowband not shading properly between 0830 and 1500.  Do not use diffuse or direct data 
in this range.  Maintenance on 2/1/2006 resolved the problem.

NIM/SKYRAD/M1 - Instrument ventilator problem

Data quality office first reported that PIR1 and PIR2 appear to be deviating more than 
typical during the daylight hours.  It was found that the Skyrad PIR ventilator fans were 
building up debris on the intake air filter.  Obstructed air flow results in solar heating 
of the PIR ventilator housing in the later part of the day and biasing the incomming IR 
irradiance values. The slow buildup was insidious and wasn't discovered and corrected 
(i.e. ventilator fans cleaned on a regular and frequent basis) until Feb 23rd. On or around 
December 23rd was when this problem may have first started.  We are unable to quantify the 
extent of the problem in W/m2.  Normal deviation between PIRs is typically 3-5 W/m2.

NIM/SKYRAD/M1 - Reprocess: Longwave Calibration error

Modified pyrgeometer calibration procedures were implemented beginning in December 2003.  
These modified procedures introduced a calibration bias in the longwave data.  The 
previous procedures were re-implemented at all sites between December 2005 and February 2006 to 
restore proper calibrations.                                                             
                The data collected while the incorrect procedures were in place are 
being reprocessing to remove the calibration bias.  Note, this also affected standard 
deviation, maximum and minimum data fields.
