Toolik Group Other 2011

Needs

• Keypad
• Put Logger?
• Need a logger for West Dock

 * Sagwon Hill met station

   Highest priority, when you're passing by.  This ought to be
   reachable by radio, and I'll try to check the server settings
   to try to get there.

   If the battery voltage is healthy (e.g., 12.5 or higher), then
   please set Flag 1 on the CR10X logger.  To do this with the keypad,
   use *6 to view input locations, then hit either 0 or D, followed by
   1.  One of those (0 or D) shows the flags from left to right, the
   other shows the ports from right to left.  Hitting 1 should toggle
   either flag 1 (left-most value) or port 1 (right-most value).  Flag
   1 is the 'radio hold' flag, and will leave the radio powered up all
   the time as long as the voltage is high enough.

   I seriously need a mnemonic to remember which of 0 or D is for flags
   vs ports...

 * Franklin Bluffs met and snowfence

   I think the met station is ok, just not downloading all the time due
   to the distance and lack of a decent repeater.  We have had contact
   with the snowfence logger recently, but just not a strong connection.

   I think Sveta may have trip to these sites fairly soon, but if you
   have time and are inspired to do some troubleshooting, it might be
   good to check out the snowfence logger system.

 * Upper Kuparuk river gauging site

   I don't know the status of this one; if it's there and active we
   should be able to download data from it via radio.  I'll check the
   servers on this end.

 * Imnavait Creek, former flume/weir site

   This was removed, right?

 * Put River gauge site

   I think perhaps you have a logger to go there, but I think no
   radio as yet.  A radio could be added later if desired, or sooner
   if you get inspired and want to have remote access to the data.

 * Betty Pingo met

   Don't know what's up with this.  I presume it's working but we haven't
   heard from it in some time.  I'll check the server settings...

 * West Dock met

   This one needs a CR10X logger.  The logger program can be found
   online, see logger.dld in the site_directory_view link at:

   http://ine.uaf.edu/werc/projects/NorthSlope/coastal_plain/west_dock/current.html

   I don't know what the priorities are on this one, but at least
   if you're in Prudhoe and needing something to do it should be
   relatively easy to get it online.  I think there should be a
   CR10X at Toolik that could be loaded with the program.

A few sites are of lower priority and would involve a hike to reach:

 * Sagwon Summit repeater

   This repeater has not been heard from in years, presumably dead
   for unknown reasons.  It is visible from the Sagwon Hill parking
   area (with the outhouse), and is on the highest point of land in
   the area.

 * Upper Imnavait met, or snowfence control site (Sveta's site)

   This site ought to be working, and I'll try to check the server.
   I connected a healthy pair of batteries in April.

 * Upper Kuparuk ridge repeater/camera, aka Island Lake

   This site is unusual in its configuration, and I see that the
   radio at least is working.  Probably something I can fix remotely...
