    Flying out of Byrd with the assistance of two camp members we were able to install a station at I-189(Janet). Instruments heights and notes to follow.

    Enclosure # 14413
    Argos ID # 8936

    Heights(cm):

    Lower T: 125
    ADG: 145
    Pyronometer: 173
    Junction box(measured from bottom): 120
    Enclosure: 159
    Upper T: 379
    HMP: 378
    Aerovane: 437

    After discussion with Jonathan it seems prudent on the next servicing to do a full reinstall, as the tower is upside down making usage of the Aerovane mount impossible, and further tower additions more difficult.
    Unavco GPS was placed at the station from approximately 11AM to 4PM
