HF Facility Status

Mike Sulzer

The HF facility is now dry and is expected to stay that way for some time. A court hearing on the injunction to stop the pumping of water from the wetland on which the facility is located has not yet been scheduled. Unusually high rainfall continued into January, but nonetheless repairs on the east half of the HF array was completed on schedule, and work on the west half continues on schedule also. Much of the task consists of the reestablishment of antenna-tower guy-wire anchors, many of which were pulled out because of the flooding and Hurricane Hortense. All four transmitters have been successfully tested into the dummy load. Tests with the antenna are proceeding now.
