| Description: | When the ceilometer was replaced, small gaps in the netCDF files occurred due to the presence of '?' characters in the backscatter and header records of the raw data that could not be ingested. It is unknown whether this was caused by a poor CPU board or incompatibilities with the computer configuration (hyper-threading). The problem was corrected when the instrument and computer were both replaced. During this period, approximately 3% of data are missing each hour due to this problem. |

| Description: | When the CT25K ceilometer was replaced with a new CL31, checksum errors began occurring at regular 6-min intervals and several things were done to diagnose the problem, including changing the serial cable and trying different computer types. It was finally corrected by replacing the computer with one in which hyperthreading was disabled by default in the BIOS. |
