Subject:
PVC/SKYRAD/M1 - Reprocess: Incorrect IRT Configuration
DataStreams:pvcskyrad60sM1.b1
Description:
The SKYRAD IRT was installed temporarily (waiting for the new enclosure) in
a vertical orientation, without the use of the gold mirror. When irt_comm
was started, the emissivity parameter in the startup file was not changed to 1.000 
compensate for the absence of the mirror, resulting in a positive bias of about 5 K.

These data may be corrected by adjusting the radiance values for the difference in 
emmissivity.

Subject:
PVC/SKYRAD/M1 - IRT scale factor
DataStreams:pvcskyrad20sM1.a0, pvcskyrad60sM1.b1
Description:
The IRT was replaced with a unit with the wrong analog output configuration, such that the 
sky temperature was below the measurable range, resulting in a constant output of 0 
volts or 173.2 K.
