NCAR/NSF C-130 Mulitchannel Cloud Radiometer [NCAR/EOL]
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/206.003

Summary
The MCR is a seven-channel radiometer that scans between ±45° about the
NSF/NCAR C-130 track. This dataset contains MCR data collected during the
Instrument Development and Education in Airborne Science Phase 2 (IDEAS-2)
project which took place from 3 October 2002 to 1 November 2002. This data can
be viewed using MCRVIEW available for download below.
