Gibson Lake TX Site

Another not very exciting image. I shot this just after starting up the transmitter for the day. We have a test we do (primary pulse test) at the beginning and end of every day to check the synchronization of the transmitter and receiver. In the morning we take two readings about 10 minutes apart, so we have a little break, a good time for a coffee or to take a photo. This TX site is about 20 km in the woods from the main road. It is actually on top of an Eskar, but you really don't get any appreciation of that until you have to walk across it. The area is very sandy with lots of spruice and pine.

On the way in today we saw a Timber Wolf, but He was too fast for me to get a photo. Posted by Picasa

Hmm Hopefully you will be in a remote enough location that that will not be likley.
