               the hourly data was applied.   Needed to download the 
               updated files and reload into the MAWN database. 
 
 
01/23/2008: Station Online: 
 
             - Station added to MAWN web site. 
 
 
01/18/2008: Data Collection Enabled: 
 
             - Data Collection and Data Archive for new station begins: 
 
                  First data report:   Dec 01, 2007 - 00:05 (Day=335)

             - Final Testing of automated data-collection and data-format 
               changes (with the help of Sven Bohn from KBS). 
 
             - Should now able to collect raw weather data in proper format. 
 
 
Fall 2007: New Station Retro-Fitted for MAWN Network (sm): 
 
                Notes: 
                  
                   Will not be able to current wind data.   Sensor at 
                   MSUKBS is installed at 10-m.   MAWN Network requires 
                   wind data at 3-m. 
 
                   Soil Moisture Data reported at slightly different  
                   depths: 
 
                      MSTR0:   KBS (5cm)    MAWN (10cm) 
                      MSTR1:   KBS (20cm)   MAWN (25cm)
