Could I please be added to the initial round of testing? Thank you.<br>

<div> How about concerns over proximity to large metal

distance from any metal sheds, roofs, fences, etc.</div>

Those are good questions, Phil.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As you suggest, I think we should be testing for:</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Varying RF/Magnetometer noise environments (e.g.
urban/suburban/rural)</li>
<li>Varying climates (hot, cold, dry, wet)</li>
<li>Ability to work in close proximity to a 100W to
1500W class amateur radio station.</li>
</ul>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The current Round 2 test site list was chosen
primarily based on locations of current project
participants who would be able to provide reasonable
engineering support. I believe it does already cover a
number of the different conditions above. We can
certainly revise the list if needed. We also kept a few
units in reserve.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I would be very glad to have you field some of these
and we can increase your count to 3.</div>

During Round 1:</div>
<div>
<ol>
<li>Dave KD0EAG will be testing his code to
make sure it works with the new
magnetometer layout.</li>
<li>Dave KD0EAG will be developing a
quick-and-dirty file-based data collection
system (see below).</li>
<li>Jules K2KGJ will be doing side-by-side
testing of two magnetometers in Hillsdale,
NY.</li>
<li>Hyomin KD2MCR will lead the development
of the installation instruction manual
with input from Dave KD0EAG and Jules
K2KGJ.</li>
<li>Dave KV0S and Nathaniel W2NAF will help
as needed.</li>
</ol>

</div>
<div>The data collection system Dave KD0EAG is
going to be quick-and-dirty file-based data
collection system. The goal is to simply
rsync or scp *.csv.bz2 files up to a central
server hosted by
<a href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Flinode.com%2F&data=04%7C01%7CDavid.G.McGaw%40dartmouth.edu%7Ccd87b1e7bb1f4060ff7e08d8865c5113%7C995b093648d640e5a31ebf689ec9446f%7C0%7C0%7C637407078355250093%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=EUjXXDvsN3iAYzSi%2FHKdTwk6tJmrjxbJBnfitcKXQ3o%3D&reserved=0" originalsrc="http://linode.com/" shash="oQKT3/YfwycOmOH6TwoXXiRn7dcRAPSfZE68fIc5LBcpp+74h32YCsz3e6XYWbWjU2WeB2YKoeO3MWiBfGyTVryjAyLmQQZaiXxWYqqDVcXO+V/p2s8f4HIdj++SS/boSBtQwmZtl9yGRJ5WKH/YfyKnHlOxeh1nXwKRHF7p7xg=" target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">linode.com</a>
on some hourly or daily basis. The goal here
is simplicity and reliability to allow us to
get access to data ASAP. No databases or
visualization will be done at this point.
This will not be the final solution, but it
should be something we can get working
within one to two weeks. We can use NJIT’s
antarctic GMAG data server as an example: <a href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fantarcticgeospace.njit.edu%2FData%2FFluxgate%2F&data=04%7C01%7CDavid.G.McGaw%40dartmouth.edu%7Ccd87b1e7bb1f4060ff7e08d8865c5113%7C995b093648d640e5a31ebf689ec9446f%7C0%7C0%7C637407078355260087%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=cgz2lQC0x6Ili6HCVO0DqiIpQnFAFec%2FKg3V2CvKnyA%3D&reserved=0" originalsrc="https://antarcticgeospace.njit.edu/Data/Fluxgate/" shash="HOQsSYq9u7S5UGHE16aVhUVIJJjxmFIXZmrZ8FVzxMbhURh4XlKVv+I8KFcIlRHELwhXvP29T6cvambuwamB04qYtOvucg0N10VlBDozPqEnEEJuZwLSBuzFVVn559KfFuXQrZ93rgnzNndfti8QEOhZ474hD+gTdiZcGvP1KzY=" target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://antarcticgeospace.njit.edu/Data/Fluxgate/</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Once we have that running, and an initial
draft of the installation manual is
complete, we will distribute the rest of the
magnetometers to the people on the Round 2
list.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you are on the Round 2 list and would
like a magnetometer set sooner rather than
later, let me know, and I am sure we can
accommodate you.</div>
