*** probably split off surface water sensors onto a different logger (maybe the cr800 up top or else a new one)<br />
*** airtemp & Precip<br />
*** 3m anemometer<br />
*** use self tapping screw to keep animals from removing precip bucket lid.<br />
** Upper station <br />
*** soil pit in the low area <br />

===Anemometer notes ===<br />
Testing each anemometer for <br />
*propeller torque using anemometer torque disc (18310)<br />
**factory spec is 2.6 gm-cm (black nylon screw at 5cm and metal screw at 2cm)<br />
*** 33821 moved with 0.2 gm-cm (a black nylon screw at 2cm radius), so this is much better than factory spec<br />
*** 61996 moved with 0.5 gm-cm<br />
**tested both Clock Wise(CW) and Counter Clock Wise (CCW)<br />
*Wind speed using anemometer drive (18802)<br />
** @200rpm = 0.98m/s. @1000rpm = 4.9m/s. @2000rpm = 9.8m/s<br />
**tested both CW and CCW<br />
*Vane Torque using Vane Torque Gauge (18331)<br />
**mount the gauge, pull the string, if it moves with < 30 gm-cm of torque, golden.<br />
**tested both CW and CCW<br />
*Wind Direction using Vane Angle Fixture Tower Mount (18212)<br />
** checked 3 directions<br />
*** 33821 all within 1 degree of accuracy<br />
*** 61996 reads 3 degrees less (ex: reads 177 when should be 180)<br />
