Description:
The MMCR at SGP has experienced a degradation of its processing capability that has 
resulted in a 7% reduction in the number of scans the MMCR makes.  This is uniformly 
distributed throughout the day.  REF:  ARM PIF P020723.1

There is nothing wrong with the data but there is a reduction in the amount of data 
collected.
