Another beautiful day in paradise. A little more high cloud (it's supposed to snow in Gothic tomorrow), but still mostly sunny, calm, and a balmy -15c.
We got an earlier start today, to the site by 9. I swapped out three more lidar USB sticks, one in pi 5 at D at 9:23 and two in the pis in UE at 9:42.
At UE the power box serial number is 206, and the dsm is 208. At C dsm cm has serial number 234, and it looked like dsm cu might have been 260, but hard to tell with a zip tie in the way. Thanks to Eli for letting us use his binoculars!
Tony looked into the power to the CSAT3BH heaters. The short answer is yes, it's getting power. I'll let him fill in the details of his investigation.
(I found that each transducer on the is getting 1.2VDC and the chassis 2.3VDC. Measurements were taken from the power box. -Tony)
We were back at Gothic by 11, with a stop back at Maroon to get Ethan's hard drive from Danny and Eli. Since we were done with site visit tasks, and since we wanted to avoid driving home in the snow tomorrow, we decided to leave today. We left Gothic at 11:45 and were back at the trailhead by 1:30. I'm now back in Boulder, and I assume Tony is as well.
We put wstar back in the Salamander room before leaving, for when the next group is looking for it.
Here's a last look at the site from the road on our way out.
