Our agenda:
1) Homestake update: aim for the week of Nov 17:
- PASSCAL should be sending many boxes this week, they should make it to Homestake by Nov 10 or so. - Liteway should be sending 4 GPS units and all cables/splitters to UMN this week as well, which should give Tanner a couple of weeks to test them before the Homestake trip. - Should be better in terms of snow. - A bit better availability of people.
Gary, Tanner, and Pat will take this trip. Tanner and Pat could drive again, since they have to bring the digitizers and GPS units, on Sunday Nov 16 and pick up Gary from the airport at Rapid City. Could purchase what is needed in Rapid City (dog houses, maybe batteries too), and then drive to Lead.
On Monday, the team (plus Jamey) would have to look at and test the PASSCAL equipment, and install the radio on the roof of Yates. Probably will take most of the day.
Gary and Pat would then work on the surface stations on Tue, Wed and maybe part of Thu if Gary can make it. Pat could then drive Gary back to Rapid to catch his flight on Wed or Thu.
Tanner would work with Jamey on the underground stations on Tue-Thu. Could use Friday Nov 21 to tune the data stream on the surface (no underground access anyway), but if things are going well this could be the return day.
2) UMN test setup (Tanner)
3) Analysis of existing data
