STX1 is NOAA-16's HRPT transmitter. Engineering has decided to stay with the current STX configuration as STX1 HRPT transmitter is operating nominally at its new output power. However, engineers will keep an eye on STX1's performance for any signs of further degradation. *Update*: NOAA-16 HRPT transmitter is now operating on a power of 2.196W. *Contact Information for Further Information:* ESPC Operations at ESPCOperations@noaa.gov at 301-817-3880 Carl Gliniak at carl.gliniak@noaa.gov at 301-817-4207 Marlin Perkins at Marlin.O.Perkins@noaa.gov at 301-817-4523 *Web Site(s) for applicable information:*See http://www.oso.noaa.gov/poesstatus/spacecraftStatusSummary.asp?spacecraft=16 for NOAA-16 spacecraft summary.
