141: Site_visit, Site 3, Tue 21-Oct-2003 10:32:32 EDT, st3: weed whack under rad
10/20/03 15:00-15:40

Weeds Whacked under radiometers.  Photos taken.

RG: OK, but False Tip at 15:00. bucket was 'full' from last rain event,
	so when i pulled up the shield it tipped.

sdr/metppf uploaded

kh2o was ok.

10/17/03 15:10-16:00

GOES Antenna Moved:
	Due to noise on microBaro/T.
	This site had a bit longer RF cable so we were able
	to place it WSW of the trh.  Should be better.

kh2o was at ~950mV so we decided against lowering the mast.
RG ok
Time ok
Rad cleaned
Soil Sample taken.

Weed Situation: Tony thought that it might be worse to whack
	the weeds out from under the rad stand and that they
	aren't influencing the turbulent fluxes.  He'll discuss
	this with Dave before to make a final decision.  Tony
	did take photos for reference.

Check angles: see entry 120
Checked CO2 cal: see entry 128

Tom will add a more complete entry about our visit today to s3.
I just wanted to make a note to the tear-down crew that we just
(accidentally, of course) dropped a jeweler's screwdriver down the
leg where the GOES antenna is mounted (SE?) and, for obvious reasons
couldn't get it out.  Sorry.
