P.S. Post to the blog ... I'm sure others what to know what you have to say

SHARE update

So ... the SHARE engineers community continues to grow ... some of the fathers (grandfathers) of the radar are still active in the SuperDARN community, others have moved on to greener pastures.

Well, here we have a place to keep those of you interested updated with SHARE developments, as well as a place to 'chew the fat' with current and past engineers.

So ... who's who in the zoo?

Well the three current engineers are Zama (returning) Llewellyn (current) and Kieth (training) and of course ... the rest of you should know each other :)

Current projects are

• upgrading of the old ROS
• the integration of digital receivers into the radar system at SANAE
• development of a glider beacon for calibrating the radar beams/interferometer etc

In the pipeline are Stereo radar functionality and transmitter box re-engineering.

I am keen that all of you should be able to post to the blog so pop a mail to me so that i can set the right permissions.

Cheers for now
Linds
