9/24/16

Summary: Light winds and cloudy skies today. Station 12 was not reporting in this morning. A field trip found the cell modem was not working.  Reset the tower and left when it all appeared to be working.  Recovered the QSoil sensor from Station 1 and took a soil sample from Station 9 while getting some boom angles from 1, 9, 10, and 12 to round out this trip.

Actions past 24 hours:

  • Yesterday (9/23) investigated TRH and decided the fan current sensor board was faulty. Found corrosion on several pins in connectors and one wire had corroded and broken off under the heat shrink covering a splice.  Repaired the wire, replaced the board, tested and found the unit runs slowly but shows 329mA of current which is not right either so it will have more time spent on it soon.

To dos:

  • Reshoot boom angles (just because...)
  • troubleshoot mote from S9
