| Comments:
Spread-spectrum digital radio transmitter had problems in communicating with the receiver at the roof top of Raymond Hall at SUNY Potsdam campus. Hence, it did not work during spring through fall when leaves on tree branches are blocking the path. In the summer of 2003, we installed 32 feet antenna tower at the station and worked well for few weeks. Then, the station is dead due to too much snow covering solar panels(?). | |
