Josh and I onsite.

Cool and mostly cloudy today, still with strong winds from the south. No real rainfall, but you can feel the moisture in the air.

Out to the array midmorning to try plugging the t5 dsm power supply into the serial card rather than the power panel, at Gary's suggestion. Turns out this doesn't work. While out at the array also did some more looking at the PurpleAir sensor, but no luck getting it to connect to t44.

In the trailer, looked at the two csat3s that Josh and Jacquie replaced last week. When I plugged them into the spare dsm, they are both still giving nans for everything except diagbits, which is 31 (and ldiag, which is 1). So I guess letting them dry out a bit wasn't enough to bring them back.

This afternoon we had some guests on site! Last night we had dinner with Wes and Paula (the drone operators from OU) and a bunch of people they knew, who are in the area because they're working as biologists at Nellis Air Force base. Today they came out for a tour of the site and to help with the 3pm balloon launch, and to tell us all about the lizards and small mammals in the area.
