Subject:
SGP/SIRS/E7 - Unknown problem with downwelling shortwave instrument (Eppley PSP)
DataStreams:sgpsirsE7.b1, sgpsirsE7.00, sgpsirs20sE7.a0
Description:
Beginning around 0317 UTC, 11/21, downwelling shortwave values became anamolously high 
during the night, when they should have been around zero. Values returned to normal after 
SGP technicians reseated this instruments connections at 1215UTC 12/02/2003.  The following 
day's data appeared normal.  Appears that a poor connection was the culprit this time.
Suggestions: 
Data is incorrect. Disregard this data
