  • Adds 2-4 supplemental low-level scans to each volume scan
• Changes to CMD reducing residual clutter
  • Improvements to dual pol products
• Sites gaining supplemental below 0.5-degree elevation angles
• Software security updates

The operator training for RDA/RPG Build 18.2 deployment consists of an on-line Articulate module.
