- SR50 connector not tight, tightened
- Distance 200 cm to ground from SR50 grid 1' diam circle, 200, 205, 206, 205, 200 cm, changed offset to 200 and recompiled
- SR50M-45 S/N C4790 PROM SR50V13, SIG: 56809

8 June 2007, Ken I., Dan R.
- found rain gauge collector/funnel blown off to west, about 25m away in rocks
- cut slot in rim of collector, used hose clamps to secure to guage
- installed electric fence with 4 posts, fence charger/controller (fencer) on a 5th post
- installed aluminum back plates on solar panel to protect wires
- tripod & radiation pole all firm & true. Alter shield still well set, still a bit skewed.
- the site does have a barometer installed
- radiation sensor bubble level is true. 56 inches from sensor (center) to mean ground
- snow depth sensor 80 inches to ground, measured from grid of sensor
- all sensors look good
- instrument shelter is dry inside
- recommend white box to contain loose/extra wire from HMP, RM Young, and antenna cable. (White in order to minimize heating & effect on AT sensors.)
- 3 soil moisture sensors in flex conduit coiled, sitting beneath solar panel
- REMOVED TO Toolik -- NOT AT SITE!!
