  DMS, SO2, OCS, by GC-MS

  H2SO4 MSA, & OH, by API-MS (H2SO4 yes, OH awaiting spares, should be OK if spares show up).

  NH3 vapor by LIF (Depends on shipment arrival)

  NO by ozone chemilum.

  Tuned ultrafine CN counters, UM

  Radial DMA, CIT (Needs spares and two hours of power)

  CFC's & NMHC cannister collection

  CCN Spectrometer

  Aerosol chemistry, by two-stage impactor and IC analysis

  Aerosol carbon collection by two-stage impactor (Needs flowmeter repair)

  HNO3 by nylon filters, external sampler

  Single-particle analysis aerosol collection  

  CN, UCN, RCN by heated and ambient CN counters

  Integrating nephelometer w/ backscat. shutter (Data system needs PCMCIA card)

  Thermally-conditioned OPC

  Aerosol light absorbtion by aethalometry

  Radial DMA, UH (Functional at some level)

  Ozone by Teco UV (New unit being tweaked up)

  Ozone eddy corr. by NO Chemilum (Data system noise, repairs in progress)

  H2O2 by peroxidase

  CO by IR absorption

  CO2 by IR

  Up- and Down-welling radiation by TDDR

  Aerosol lidar (Unlikely both channels depend on receipt of replacement IR detector)

  MASP

  Balloon location receiver and PC
