Rudy had noted that Vmotes at ehs were dropping out.  It appears that this is an issue with RF transmission (even from one leg of the darkhorse to the other!).  I decided to bypass the whole radio stuff by wiring each of the motes as a serial mote.  This involved:

• cabling from each DSM port to the mote console port
• applying the pp=0 command to each mote (after first hitting the white scan button twice to enable the hardwired console)
• changing the config to look at 3 serial ports

All this was done from about 1130 to 1200 today.  Now all is well except "ds" only reports data from tty9 (and not tty6&8).  This must be related to the mote ids, but the data <seem> to be okay.

Other stuff:

• took photos
• used my GPS to "shoot" boom angles.  Got 146degN into the CSAT, 234degN into the 2D.
• GPS station location: 40d 02.940'N, 105d 01.052'W.
