SGP/SIRS/E12 - Reprocess: Incorrect calibrations
DataStreams:sgpsirsE12.00, sgpsirsE12.b1, sgpsirs20sE12.a0
Description:
During site corrective maintenance to resolve an Extended Facility data collection 
problem, the SIRS.E12 datalogger was power cycled (1725 GMT).  The datalogger reverted to an old 
SIRS program with incorrect S/Ns and calibration coefficients for all instruments at 
this station.

The data can be recalibrated as follows:
First divide value by incorrectly applied cal coeff (first number) then multiply by 
correct cal coeff (second number)
  down_short_diffuse_hemisp     107.27	118.68
  up_short_hemisp	        113.19	127.95
  short_direct_normal           120.17	120.52
  down_short_hemisp             118.46	102.11
  up_long_netir                 0.2747	0.2708
  down_long_netir               0.2657	0.2435

Reapply cal coeffs below using up_long_netIR(uV), inst_up_long_dome_temp(K),   
inst_up_long_dome_temp(K) using procedure described in SIRS instrument manual.
