Elaine site was visited on 1/28/09 by John Cassano, 3 RPSC
personnel on a morale trip (Scott, Tanya, and Kat), and 2 Twin
Otter pilots (Josh and Randy). 

The Twin Otter had difficulty locating this site.

The Twin Otter GPS coordinates at the site were 83 deg 05.84 min S
and 174 deg 17.38 min E.

UNAVCO GPS (#16414) deployed at site from 14:35 to 16:50 local time

Upon arrival the height to bottom of:

Lower delta T boom: buried
Junction box: buried
Solar panel: 28"
AWS enclosure: buried to top of enclosure
Upper boom: 61"

Work completed:
A new 7' tower section was added to this site
AWS 8987 was replaced with AWS 21357
Belfort aerovane was replaced with RM Young aerovane

New height to bottom of:

Lower delta T boom: 34"
Junction box: 55"
Solar panel: 117"
AWS enclosure: 89"
Upper boom: 148"

The next time this site is raised we will need two battery extension
cables as there is no more slack left in the existing battery cables.

After reinstalling all equipment transmission from the station
was confirmed with Telonics.
