Subject: | NIM/MWR/M1 - Instrument noise problem/RF interference |
DataStreams: | nimmwrM1.00, nimmwrlosM1.b1, nimmwrtipM1.a1 |
Description: | Data are affected by intermittent spikes that become more frequent starting in March 2006. Spikes affect data mostly around 9 AM and 18:00 PM. The origin of the spikes is probably RF interference. |

Subject: | NIM/MWR/M1 - Radiometer occasionally overheating |
DataStreams: | nimmwrlosM1.b1, nimmwrtipM1.a1 |
Description: | The radiometer is occasionally thermally unstable. The thermal instability occurs when the air temperature exceeds approximately 42.8 degree C (about 316-317 K). This has been happening since March. The most affected months are March, May, and June. |
