Well that travel issue<\/strong> of not sleeping after long trips has kicked in.  I woke up at 4:30 and just could not get back to sleep so just got up.  It was an overcast morning, but I couldn\u2019t see it when I got up as it was DARK\u2026  I had my oatmeal and set<\/strong> down to catch up a report that I have to do after one<\/strong> of those audits.  I worked on that until about 10:30AM and got an email that the WX<\/strong> station<\/strong> was down.  Ok, now what?  We had had almost 2 inches of rain<\/strong> yesterday \u2013 first big rain<\/strong> in a very long time<\/strong> \u2013 but the rain<\/strong> gauge<\/strong> had never given a problem<\/strong>.  The problems had always been me messing up the software or the receiver<\/strong> so that it lost the memory of what had happened before or something.  (note: did it again)<\/p>\n

When I went out I figured it was just a typical thing<\/strong> of loosing connection to one<\/strong> of the units or a battery issue<\/strong>.  Sure enough it showed that it could not \u201ctalk\u201d to the rain<\/strong> gauge<\/strong>.  The WX<\/strong> station<\/strong> I have up is one<\/strong> of those Oregon Scientific WMR-968<\/a>.  I got this unit<\/strong> because it was not so expensive and allowed for extra remote sensors (I have 3 extra temp sensors on it to monitor the shop area and an extra outside temp for the deck).  I had read a lot that this unit<\/strong> , in some instances, had problems of sensors going bonkers in 2 to 3 years and I was at that point but it was still strange, the rain<\/strong> gauge<\/strong> has never given a problem<\/strong> but maybe it had dead batteries.  At first I figured to wait till afternoon to get on the roof<\/strong> of the barn.  I would have to get it down for checking but thinking on it I figured I had time<\/strong> to check the batteries before leaving for lunch.  <\/p>\n

I knew I had to take the back off to get the cable off so I got out the screw driver for it and pulled the ladder out and away I went up on the roof<\/strong>.  I hate getting up there anymore as the peak is about 20 ft. off the ground.<\/p>\n

\"guage1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

You can just see the remote sender on the lower left.  This is a pic after the job was done.<\/p>\n

I just do not like the steep north side<\/strong> of the roof<\/strong> too much but I can deal with it.  I pulled the unit<\/strong> loose from the mount, unscrewed the umpteen zillion screws<\/strong> on the back and opened it up and water<\/strong> came out?  Immediately I could see that water<\/strong> had set<\/strong> in the bottom and some battery corrosion was showing on the connector.  I pulled out the batteries, as they were shot by now, and hauled it all down to the shop to get a better look<\/strong> at repairs or trash?<\/p>\n

\"sender1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"sender2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This thing<\/strong> has a weather seal<\/strong> around the back and the cable comes in from the bottom so I am not sure how it got so wet inside but it was plenty wet. <\/p>\n

So there was no repair<\/strong> here, but fortunately I have a spare wx station<\/strong> I got on sale last year,  so I pulled out the other rain<\/strong> gauge<\/strong> and proceeded to get it set<\/strong> up.  I got it showing on the receiver<\/strong> but had to leave for lunch<\/strong> before I got it put back up.  <\/p>\n

After lunch<\/strong> I got back to the house and got it back on the roof<\/strong>.  As I was making final moves to get it installed the guys showed up to re-evaluate my attic insulation<\/strong>.  I have not been real happy with the blown in fiberglass I got and for good reason.  I had not gotten up there except to look<\/strong> around the area from the closet when it was built.  When they went up to look<\/strong>, I went to the top of the ladder and looked from the kitchen side<\/strong> and sure enough the coverage was very poor, spotty and not nearly 6 inches all over as I had ordered when they built.  Now maybe some of that was settling over time<\/strong> so I will have to just figure<\/strong> it that way but the bat insulation<\/strong> on the vertical section around the living area was coming loose and that is not good.  My intention is to get another 6 inches of ground up story-foam that will not settle and has very little dust as would the blown in cellulose.  Supposedly this stuff even has a higher R value per inch so we will give it a try.  In the process I have asked them to make<\/strong> repairs on the verticals and add what we can to seal<\/strong> up that portion as well and make<\/strong> sure we fill in all the area that is not filled in.  They will also put another 6 inches on the shop attic.  The price will not be too bad if they stay anywhere close to the estimate and I am sure it will pay out in just a few years if it gives a better seal<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Once all that was done I went back in the shop to put some tools  away and re-look<\/strong> at the sender mess.  Since I am partially deaf I had not noticed before, but there was a strange noise coming from the WX<\/strong> computer<\/strong>.  Well that can\u2019t be good.  I pulled it out and gave it a look<\/strong> and best I can figure<\/strong> it is either the power supply fan or the hard drive and I fully suspect it to be the hard drive that is about to crash.  Just what I need is for another cat-ass-trophy to happen but looks like I have computer<\/strong> repairs in the future for later this week.  Just seems when it is one<\/strong> thing<\/strong> it turns into more and with the dead battery in the car Friday night and now the WX<\/strong> station<\/strong> and the computer<\/strong> that will makes 3 so maybe I will be good to go for some time<\/strong>.  You know the theory of threes?  Sure wish I had gotten a Mega-Million lottery ticket today as it would have happened after the 3rd problem<\/strong>?  right?<\/p>\n

Oh well, tomorrow I make<\/strong> a trip to Enid to see Dad and help out with some things there.     REX<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
