The spacecraft entered safe mode on 2006/007 and was in the process of recovering when the last of these data were collected (2006/011).

The same offset is present on 2006/006. This may simply be the result of reduced staffing over the holiday period. These offsets should not affect science processing of the data. The spacecraft entered safe mode on 2006/007; reports from RMDCT indicate that it was out of safe mode on day 008, but the occultation data suggest otherwise. In the first OCI on 008 the X-band carrier starts at 600 Hz above the center of the passband and has drifted almost to the edge by ingress; there is no S-band signal. For the second OCI there are two signals within the X-Band passband; but the stronger has only 12 dB SNR, so these may be images of the real carrier. The drift is similar to the first occultation, and there is no S-Band signal. On day 010 the X-band carrier starts 200 Hz above the center frequency drifts to about 650 above the center at OCI. These data and the data from the first occultation on 008 may be one-way. There was no S-Band signal on day 010 and no RSR data were collected. On day 011 the X-band carrier stays near the center of the passband and the occultation appears to be nominal, suggesting two-way data. But there was no S-Band signal, so the second RSR was not used.
