The center was estimated to be at 19.0N 69.0W (which was still over the Dominican Republic). We entered from the SE to the NW, and did a shore patrol along the northern side of the island. We repeated this loop twice, and had 4 radar fixes. We were then released early, checked out the winds on the south side of the island, and headed back to TNCC. The max surface winds from our drops was 74kts. As far as issues, the HDD CAM4 display showed "no video input", the SFMR was reading about 20 kts too low (when we found the max wind band). Finally, we kept getting an ARWO ICS CNTL PNL FAULT ACAWS when we would switch to PVT.
