We present anisotropy results for anomalous cosmic-ray (ACR) protons in theenergy range $\sim$0.5-35 MeV from Cosmic Ray Subsytem (CRS) data collectedduring calibration roll maneuvers for the magnetometer instrument when Voyager2 (V2) was in the inner heliosheath. We use a new technique to derive for thefirst time the radial component of the anisotropy vector from CRS data. We findthat the CRS-derived radial solar wind speeds, when converted from the radialcomponents of the anisotropy vectors via the Compton-Getting (C-G) effect,generally agree with those similarly-derived speeds from the Low-Energy ChargedParticle experiment using 28-43 keV data. However, they often differsignificantly from the radial solar wind speeds measured directly by the PlasmaScience (PLS) instrument. There are both periods when the C-G-derived radialsolar wind speeds are significantly higher than those measured by PLS and timeswhen they are significantly lower. The differences are not expected norexplained, but it appears that after a few years in the heliosheath the V2radial solar wind speeds derived from the C-G method underestimate the truespeeds as the spacecraft approaches the heliopause. We discuss the implicationsof this observation for the stagnation region reported along the Voyager 1trajectory as it approached the heliopause inferred using the C-G method.
