DFM2 White Hills Met

  • Lat: 69 29.187, Lon: -149 49.284
  • Needs major  sensor repairs. Most of the sensors are bad.
  • Would be good to get rainfall and air temperature but I propose probably not fixing the following broken sensors: 
    • needs a new anemometer (bad bearings),
    • has a bad SR50 snow depth sensor old style
    • Needs an HMP Air temp sensor or a new backup sensor
  • Data

  • Station has:
    • HMP,
    • 10KOhm resistor
    • Battery box thermistor.
