Data Evaluation
In many flights during the 99-006 deployment, a minor pixel offset occured in channels 20-22. In addition, some flights (for example 99-006-08 and 99-006-14) contain banding in channel 22. This banding was a result of the analog offset in channel 22 being fixed at a value of 1024, meaning the digital to analog converter did not move through the entire signal range.
