13 July 2007, Ken I.
- wx dry, about 60F, wind 10-15 knots from south
- Site is in good shape; electric fence working.
- swapped solar panel leads at charge controller; showing charge,
but solar panel shows 19V vs battery at 12.49V, so charge controller is not working
- old charge controller: SS-10-12V, S/N 06014116 <-- BAD
- replaced charge controller: SS-10-12V, S/N 07160062
- no logbook at site
- taped yellow "flags" on electric fence to keep from blowing over to posts
- after change, solar panel shows 12.4V, battery 12.55V
- shaded solar panel, observed drop in both voltages
10 June 2007, Ken I., Dan R.
- installed HMP45C-L45', s/n Z4750068
- (could be replaced with sensor with 5-foot cable...)
- installed GW-YSI 3-AT sensor, tag# ATB5_DAR2
- installed flex conduit on all wires
- bridged solar shields (2) w/ copper rod (available mat'ls :) to try to strengthen setup. Both had been bent down & back before we got to site.
- installed electric fence
- found wire on back of solar panel pulled off (probably by bear)
- wire & solder pad on panel still intact, probably repairable (solder)
- removed solar panel from site
- installed 50W solar panel (formerly at old White Hills repeater)
