4160 2019-11-19 Sherman Barn Precipitation Tested Sherman Barn Precipitation Plug tipping bucket into the calibration CR23x and dripped 475ml of water through the bucket which should result in 100tips. Got 104 tips and turned both set screws 1/2 turn CCW.
4134 2019-10-31 Sherman Barn Precipitation Calibration Sherman Barn Precipitation After cleaning the tipping bucket we connected it to a CR23x and dripped 475ml of water through the bucket which should result in 100tips. We got 90 tips. We turned its set screws two full rotations CW.
3754 2018-10-18 Sherman Barn Precipitation Calibration Sherman Barn Precipitation Got 94 of 100 tips - adjusted by a total of 3.5 turns CCW (screws were loose, so this total is suspicious; should have been a CW adjustment when all was said and done)

2018-10-18: Got 94 of 100 tips - adjusted by 0.5 turns CW.
2018-12-18: Got 117 of 100 tips - adjusted by 1 turn CCW, but screws feel very loose.
2019-01-03: Got 118 of 100 tips - adjusted by 3 turns CCW. (previous adjustment of 1 turn CCW did not seem to make a difference).
2019-01-24: Got 100 of 100 tips! No adjustments made.
