At the same time we upgraded the software on our data receiver. Unfortuanately this process was not as smooth as the upgrade of our receiver software. Due to this only fragmented data sets are available for DOY 131 to DOY 133 from CSIR. Please accept my apology for the inconvenience caused. An updated site log is appended to this mail.
