Weather: another beautiful day. Again, wind and showers to the south of us at the end of the day. People actually complained (a little) of being hot at lunch.
People: Chris, Steve, Tony, William, Antonio, Gary, some help from Elise. Two people from NOAA were working on "Tilden's tower", and Aaron showed up from UND to deploy some of his stuff. Erik visited again.
Tower tasks:
- Leveled and tensioned all 35' towers
- Placed 3 4' screw anchors, 1 for each inner guy point an 2 for each outer guy point for the 20m tower.
- With these anchors, popped the c tower up to 60'. One more section to go!
Other tasks:
- Wired AC power to all towers. Verified that at least the d and ue DSMs were working. This also got our internet working – Gary was able to connect his laptop via wifi.
- Installed soil sensors at d.
- Prepped the radiometer boom.
Summary: We're pretty far along now. Towers almost complete. Power running. Internet running. Now we just add (more) sensors, data systems, and cabling...
