123: Site_visit, Site 8, Wed 15-Oct-2003 17:46:05 EDT, st8: move antenna, routine
10/15/03 15:15 - 16:25

Purpose: move antenna to reduce noise on microbaro / trh; clean kh2o, routine.

Mast Down from 15:27-15:37

kh2o cleaned: was reading very low yesterday/overnight but when
	we arrived, rain in area with
	before cleaning: ~490mV, after ~600mV

irt ok
rain was reading ok overnight when we did get a significant amount.

soil sample taken

metppf/sdr uploaded

time not reset: gps battery kaput.  Will do it next visit.

GOES antenna moved:
	from south leg to a 'funky' installation limited by the length
	of the rf cable.  The new location is roughly straight west and below
	the trh rather than immediately below it....
	Results of move per sdr data:
