Automatic Outage: Radials older than 12 hours. Operator should investigate.

Status switched to 'In Progress'

The FLND station experienced a couple of significant jumps in reflected power on Jan 18. (It looks like there was some high reflected power a few days earlier but that didn’t cause too many problems.) Starting on Jan 18, there was high reflected power and no Bragg. The noise floors on all channels have been spiking and the problem has gotten worse over the last few days. The only problem I found was with the antenna box. After switching out the antenna on Jan 19, I’ve been able to collect some data, but something else is wrong. I tried testing with the transmitter from VIEW station. I also tried hooking up an antenna tuner and measuring accurate power readings with the wattmeter. I emailed CODAR support and they will get back to me by the end of this week. (Follow up: CODAR thought the replacement antenna box had a problem. I secured a IOOS loan antenna, installed it and this fixed the site.)

Outage cleared automatically. Radial files have caught up since initial reporting

Status switched to 'Closed'
