 * The recalibration takes 4-8 weeks with shipping and purchase requests etc.  So by the time the units are returned it is December.  Aside from brief good weather windows it's pretty cold.  So some year's we have been able to reinstall the sub canopy in December and other years it stretches into April/May due to travel schedule and climate of winter.  The goal is to have both units operational by snowmelt in late April/ mid May.
