SGP/MWR/C1 - Intermittent Negative Sky Brightness Temperatures
DataStreams:nsamwrlosC1.a1, nsamwrlosC1.b1
Description:
Several related and recurring problems with the MWRs have been reported
dating back to 1999.  These problems were due to the occurrence of
blackbody signals (in counts) that were half of those expected. The
symptoms included noisy data, spikes in the data, negative brightness
temperatures, and apparent loss of serial communication between the
computer and the radiometer, which results in a self-termination of the
MWR program.

Because these all initially appeared to be hardware-related problems,
the instrument mentor and site operations personnel (1) repeatedly
cleaned and replaced the fiber optic comm. components, (2) swapped
radiometers, (3) sent radiometers back to Radiometrics for evaluation
(which did not revealed any instrument problems), and (4) reconfigured
the computer's operating system.  Despite several attempts to isolate
and correct it, the problem persisted.

It became apparent that some component of the Windows98 configuration
conflicted with the DOS-based MWR program or affected the serial port
or the contents of the serial port buffer. This problem was finally
corrected by upgrading the MWR software with a new Windows-compatible
program.

NSA/MWR/C1 - software upgrade (version 3.28)
DataStreams:nsamwrlosC1.a1, nsamwrlosC1.b1
Description:
The MWR operating program was upgraded to version 3.28 on 3 February 1999. This version 
includes a beam width correction as well as providing the capability to automatically level 
the elevation mirror (that is, to automatically detect and correct offsets in the 
elevation angle stepper motor position.)

The improvement in the quality of the tip curves resulting from the auto-
leveling has been dramatic: differences in the brightness temperatures at
3 airmasses (19.5 and 160.5 degrees) have been reduced from +/- 5 K to
+/- 0.5 K.  In order to take full advantage of this improvement to detect and reject 
cloudy tip curves, the minimum value of the goodness-of-fit coefficient for a valid tip curve 
has been increased from 0.995 to 0.998.

NSA/MWR/C1 - Wrong azimuth reported
DataStreams:nsamwrtipC1.a1
Description:
The MWR was reporting azimuth and actaz values of 0 degrees when in fact the  instrument 
was oriented to 244 degrees. No other data were affected. 

This has no effect on data at all, it is simply a diagnostic reference.
Measurements:nsamwrtipC1.a1:
  • Actual Azimuth(actaz)
