Subject:	NSA/MWRP/C1 - Reprocessed: 6-channel retrieval replaced by 5-channel retrieval
DataStreams:	nsamwrpC1.b1
Description:	Due to repeated failure of the V-band receiver and calibration problems, the 6-channel retrieval was retired and a new 5-channel retrieval which uses only the K-band channels was implemented. All data previously processed with the 6-channel retrieval have been reprocessed. Please note that the 7 channels (brightness temperatures) in the V-band range (51 to 60 GHz) should not be used. See D080331.1 and D080331.2.
Measurements:	nsamwrpC1.b1: Retrieved liquid water path(liquidWaterPath) Retrieved liquid water path using only 23.835 and 30.0 GHz(liquidWaterPath2) Microwave brightness temperature(brightnessTemperature)
