GPS route file: RTPOLA.mps
In cave on side of cliff behind the convent.
Call ahead for access.
No special servicing requirements.

2004:022 – Serviced station. Solar panel shifted to capture more direct sunlight. Battery voltage at 12.0 V. Needs monitoring to determine if a second solar panel needs to be installed. Replaced Styrofoam box with large insulated potter. Required built up topsoil to seal gap at base. Station was not level, so adjusted feet. Removed rocks precariously positioned above station.
2004:026 – Serviced station again. Retrieved 1 data flash card and checked battery voltage. Past two sunny days appear to have improved solar panel input (as well as repositioning effects), but added a second solar panel as well to ensure that the battery stays charged. Second panel required an extension of the wire, so monitoring should be done to make sure splicing was completed successfully.
