Subject:
NSA/SKYRAD/C2 - Station noise problem
DataStreams:nsaskyrad60sC2.b1, nsaskyrad20sC2.a0
Description:
From 8/18 through 8/20 the logger battery voltage (vBatt) periodically jumps in voltage 
with noise on all differential measurements.  The qc fields caught most of the 
down_long_hemisp MAX failures but the bad short_direct_normal, down_short_hemisp and 
down_short_diffuse_hemisp values were not flagged.

Noise returned on 8/22, 8/25-26 and 8/27-28.

Site Ops checked and re-routed the Sky stand grounds on 8/21 and performed additional 
ground re-work on 8/28.  After that date, noise has not returned to the Skystand logger 
instruments.
Suggestions: 
Data is not recoverable during these time periods.
