Through rain, in winter or summer, every day that is not a severe storm.

The cameras make many hundreds of thousands of exposures per year. After 5 to 7 years, they need upgrades. I will be working with them to refurbish the cameras pods. That involves a replacing the Canon camera, the GPS, IMU, and all the many proprietary circuit boards, and replacing the custom cables.

It is a daunting task now, but should be easy after a few more. Hopefully I can do a lot of it here, and not have to fly back and forth to the Florida panhandle a lot.
Sounds like a new dedicated work area for you. That actually would be fun.
