Lon 106d 48.83m W 106.8138
Alt 2076m
Setting up site in SE corner of Meadows parking lot at Steamboat,
about 100m north of tennis bubble.
EQUIPMENT:
MAPR with RASS
1299 Profiler
Met station (T, RH, P, Wind)
Solar radiation (vis, IR, net)
two snow guages
GLASS sounding system
Sensors on gondola (P, T, RH, nephlometer)
Setup proceeding well.
Both profilers running. Having some problems with gating cable on MAPR,
results in weak echoes even though meter on TX indicates full power.
With suitable fiddling (Mike working on connectors in dogbox) it seems
to be okay.
MAPR is using a raidzone (1.5 TB) for data (tms & cor) backup
(plus exabyte tapes for 2nd copy of tms files).
Networking problems, fixed by using fixed IP addresses instead of DHCP.
Comms - using a 2.4 GHz freewave link to a phone line in the tennis
bubble office.
