- (changed desiccant in June)
- Secure tipping bucket
- bring out drill
- bring out self tapping screws, 3x
- Bring parts to redo snow stand.
- check level of tipping bucket
Teller Bottom Packing List
- cordless drill
- drill bit

- 2x snow transducer swap
- campbell phillips screw driver
- campbell flat screw driver
- Net radiometer level
Teller SW To Do
- Solar Panel Fixes (research in Fairbanks)

- Add a snow sensor here?
Teller SW Packing List
- @Conex Bring out flow meter to make a measurement again.
- lead weights... Nome or Fairbanks? Review video / the conex tour
- new pressure transducer
- PT tube desiccant
- PT Loose desiccant
- cable ties
- maybe a bit of flex conduit
- For the solar panel fix... need to look at pictures again.!
- Hand Tools List
- Pressure Transducer addition
- wire snake
Teller m47
- Think hard about getting the solar panel off the ground a bit more
- Install Tipping bucket
- new dry soil pit / dig up and replace original
- add soil moisture probes, too.
- review what i proposed
- 4 soil moisture probes
- air temp
- second snow sensor
- batteries
- solar panel
- cr800
Council
- Survey Sigrid / Margaret's sites
NGEE Kougarok
- Survey GCP
Replace top mast and anemometer
- Full replacement anemometer
- potentially could reuse one from storage but will need:
- propeller (need to order)
- cable (fairbanks supplies)
- right size cord grip (I'm sure this is found in my Fairbanks supplies... or the one that's currently broken... )
- unistrut & 1" pipe & ubolts (try the square ones?)
- nylock nuts
- potentially could reuse one from storage but will need:
- new brown tarp
- bring out replacement card... could send new program that doesn't save out the soils data any more to increase storage...
- put soil moisture probe back in ground.
- I guess remove VATP from program to make the data record last longer.
- @Conex
- Ladder (for anemometer fix)
- @Tools Required
- 1/2" box wrench / nut driver
- 5/16" nut driver
