IOP phase setup continued.  Scattered showers in the morning, cloudy most of the day.

Completed construction of the clutter fence for the NCAS profiler at the operations center.  The fence is large structure about 8m long by 3.5m high and is composed of 6 A-frames made of 8x8cm timber with 2x5cm rails to which rabbit mesh is attached.  Emily reports that it is very effective and the profiler is now getting reliable from about 150m up to the 2-3 km range.  Many thanks to Kurt, Steve and Brigitte for helping with the construction.

Sounding site: sounding rack, computer and other components set up inside the van, however power is not yet hooked up and outside components not started yet.

Perdigao all hands meeting held at the operations center during the afternoon.
