6050 2022-10-31 Lab none Tested Lab none This sensor was removed because there were spikes in its data on two different mux ports. I pulled apart the splice in the cable and didn't see any problems. From 2022-10-27 to 2022-10-31 I ran an inter-comparison out the lab window with sn 010164. The relationship was tight (r2=0.9999) and the slope was about 1.06. sn 030382 had been inter-compared on the Tonzi tower recently but in the reflected position so the range was not optimal. I think both sensors are functional and should be inter-compared with a good reference in the field to determine appropriate coefficients.
6037 2022-10-20 Tonzi PAR Sensor Reflected Removed Lab none Removed from Tonzi due to random spikiness. Replaced by sn 990025.
