11:30 - P.nne.flr went down at approximately 10:45. SO made a slight change in the antennaorientation and the sensor came back to life at about 11:30: While showing flr to SteveC, I (SO) noticed that the sensor cable seemed to be blocking line-of-sight between the Bluetooth receivers and NNE, so I flipped the cable around to the front of the mote box.  Apparently, this crashed NNE data transmission.  SRS notified us about 40 min later (as we were about 1/4 way up the trail).  Went back to flr, flipped the cable to the backside of the mote box and rotated the lower mote box by about 10 degrees to lessen line-of-sight blockage to NNE from the tower uprights.  SRS reported that this brought NNE back and didn't adversely affect reception from the other Bluetooth motes.  data_stats delta-t's still show worse reception from NNE than the others, but no worse than before.  Odd that this mote is so finicky.
