Yesterday Steve, Dan, and Chris sited and leveled the tower. Today we added the generator, instrumented the tower and radiation stand, pivoted it to vertical, and did a partial test of raising the tower. When we had raised the tower partway we realized that some of the zip ties we used to run cables down the tower got in the way of raising it completely:

(A little dark, but cable ties around the leg of the tower get snagged by the next section in when raising. We left the tower partially extended temporarily and powered up the DSM to check sensors. Everything was giving good data, except the power monitor, which we haven't set up yet. After that test we retracted the tower and left it vertical until our next visit. The DSM is still running and saving data locally, but is not on the network.

Still to do/notes:

• redo cabling from 7m EC100, send it through the rings instead of down the leg of the tower.
• The config says the barometer is at 7m but we installed it at 27m, so either change the config or switch which EC100 box the barometer cable goes to.
• Need to add a pressure port to whichever EC100 we decide to use, and cover the pressure ports on the other EC100s.
• I pinched the cable to the 17m TRH (I think) while raising it. Still seems to work fine, but I marked the point that got pinched on the cable with white tape.
• If we remember next time, we could replace the 15m bulgins with 5m bulgins for the cables to the top level, since they already have 25m bulgins on them.
• DSM dashboard only shows a blank screen.
