Summary: LGR in low flow, added inlet funnel.

Twitchell
10-9-2009

LGR is slow flow due to generator outage on 10/7.
12:40, 1.934ppm, 11220ppm, 388.77ppm 27.32C, 84.98Torr, 18.178usec, 1Hz

Restored hi flow mode and 10Hz – pressure was reading 140.63 Torr.

Laptop was sleeping. Swapped CR1000 card.

It sounds like harvest is still a week or more off. I rotated the radiation boom back out over the field and installed soil temp set 2 at the edge of the rice.

Installed are metal funnel with screen and L-shaped fittings on intake of LGR tubing to try to avoid sucking water during heavy rain predicted for Tuesday next week.
