PROBLEM

RF01

15-Sep-99

14:02-15:59

No problems found.

RF03

20-Sep-99

03:47-10:13

No problems found.

RF04

20-Sep-99

12:05-15:45

Fore Transmiter didn't work the entire flight (12:05 - 15:46). Pump Stuck? Aft OK.

RF05

25-Sep-99

15:29-18:33

No problems found.

RF06

29-Sep-99

10:29-13:41

No problems found. Calibration of Fore Radar seems to change a bit over last half of flight.

RF07

30-Sep-99

11:57-16:41

Fore and Aft transmitters are off during first 2-3 minutes of data. No Aft transmitter from ~15:25 - 15:28

RF08

01-Oct-99

07:40-09:40

Fore Velocity field and reflectivity fields corrupted during the following periods (loose IF cable?): 8:18 - 9:04, 9:06 - 10:28, 10:31 - 10:40, 10:48 - 13:51 This is nearly the entire flight!

RF08

01-Oct-99

09:59-14:19

Fore Velocity field and reflectivity fields corrupted during the following periods (loose IF cable?): 8:18 - 9:04, 9:06 - 10:28, 10:31 - 10:40, 10:48 - 13:51 This is nearly the entire flight!

RF09

02-Oct-99

10:06-13:35

No problems found. Fore Calibration is definitely off (much more Rx noise) when compared to Aft.

RF10

04-Oct-99

06:46-11:44

Fore and Aft transmitters off at start of flight (6:46 - 6:49). According to Rick's notes there were picket beams at 9:50 and at 10:09, but I couldn't confirm this with the 1 minute data sweeps. Also, same calibration issues as in RF09.

RF11

13-Oct-99

13:26-17:31

No problems found. Same calibration issues as in RF09.

RF12

18-Oct-99

12:48-18:19

Fore and Aft transmitters off at start of flight (12:48 - 12:52). First flight with new calibration! Fore and Aft reflectivity values in good agreement again!

RF13

20-Oct-99

11:19-14:03

No problems found.

RF14

21-Oct-99

06:05-11:38

No Aft transmitter 7:34 - 7:39

RF15

23-Oct-99

06:58-13:19

VG field not thresholded 12:01-13:00.

RF15

23-Oct-99

13:20-13:35

VG field not thresholded 12:01-13:00.
