The attached PDFs document a 4.5 hour run with the underground
mounted RM3100 to achieve near constant temperature during a run.
The voltage regulator on the Dave's 0.0.10 remote adapter board
was changed to an AP2210 ultralow dropout type with a 3.0 volt
output voltage which matches the specified test voltage in the
RM3100 data sheet and is well within both the MCP9808 precision
temperature sensor and the PCA9615 differential i2c extender.
This modification substantially increases the margin for voltage
drop in long cable runs. The modification is trivial and uses the
same solder pads as the original 1117 regulator.<br>

The data plots are primarily for Hyomin. There appears to be a
correlation between the X and Y axis plots and the reported values
for the Fredericksburg magnetic observatory on the Intermagnet
site around 0400UTC. Hyomin, can you check Jenny Jump during that
same interval; NJ is closer to me than Fredericksburg. I
currently have another run going which should show some of the
higher dB activity since then if the earlier recording is not just
coincidental.<br>
<br>
Another question for Hyomin; is there value in doing a test with
two RM3100's, perhaps within 100 feet of each other as a check on
uniformity of response?<br>
