DataStreams:maotsiskycoverM1.b1, maotsiskyimageM1.a1, maotsimovieM1.a1, maotsicldmaskM1.a1
Description:
The TSI was either not operating and/or the shadowband was misaligned. The mirror control 
board did not work on deployment and was repaired at PNNL. The instrument was replaced 
with the spare on 3/7 and the shadowband alignment was corrected on 3/12.
