Subject:
GRW/MWR/M1 - Erratic brightness temperature
DataStreams:grwmwrlosM1.b1, grwmwrtipM1.a1
Description:
Around 12 Z on 7/20 both the PWV and 23.8 GHz brightness temp values began to diverge from 
those of the MWRP. By 7/22 both the LWP and 31.4 GHz brightness temp had followed suit. 
At 0600 Z on 7/22 multiple (10-20), brief (<=1 min) data outages began appearing hourly.  
The problem persisted intermittently until 8/9.

On 8/9, changes in the settings of the computer restored the proper functionality of the 
MWR software.
Suggestions: 
Use MWRP during specified period.
