Reservoir bottles are mostly frozen still
Steve and I just opened up the 1 and 2m units to check - only about
3 mm of water is not frozen around the side of the main reservoir bottle.
We'll just wait for them to thaw.

PSYC TOWER WORK:
The psyc. tower was lowered to work
on the psychrometers. Their wicks were changed
and bottles filled. This took place from about
17:30 to 19:10 GMT.
We will let it run for awhile to see
if everything looks good.
NOTE: the 10m unit's fan was not housed properly.
This must of been in this state for some time because
it's bottle still had water in it.

PSYC CONDITIONS:
The 4m wet bulb is reading too high and
the 7m dry bulb looks low compared to the 10m psyc.
We will let it run over night and hope for the best.

Dropped psychrometer tower at 22:30
to work on 4m wet bulb and 7m dry
bulb. Tower back up at 23:30.
Steve found that the 7m dry bulb
extended below the shield that separates
the wet and dry bulb and that the dry
bulb was getting wet. The wick on the
4m wet bulb was too short.

Psycrometer errors
The 7m psyc tdry is colder than the 10m tdry throughout
most of the day/night. Possibly a moisture problem.

TDRY.7m:
The tdry sensor at 7m is reading lower
then the 10m sensor. The question is which one is
at fault. Since we had problems with the 7m unit
before it is the likely choose. However, after watching
xstrip for awhile, it appears that the 10m sensor is not
responding the same as the 7m and 4m. We will try to lower
the tower today to do some servicing on it.
update: As discovered before, the fan may be our problem
at 10m. It may have slipped out again.
