Short summary

A co-located Pandora Spectrometer Instrument (Pan #034) has been compared to a well-calibrated Dobson spectroradiometer (Dobson #061) in Boulder, Colorado, and with two satellite instruments over a 3-year period. The results show good agreement between Pa n#034 and Dobson #061 and with the satellite data within their statistical uncertainties.
