OERM Signal Project Notes - May 24, 2003


The following items were repaired, installed, or maintained by the "class crew" on May 24, 2003:

     Signal Garden

Wiring and conduit to Semaphore was installed. Wiring to Searchlight push-button was installed. Documentation and understanding of overall signal garden and it's microcontroller were also started.
     Alpine Wig-Wag/Motor Switch

Study and discussion regarding problems with the Alpine Wig-Wag/Motor Switch were held. Stray voltage (approx 30 volts) will be worked on and hopefully solved by the Hirth's next Friday (May 30).
     Storage Yard Sorting

Items in the storage yard were organized.
     Alpine-Middleton Cable Replacement

The overhead cable from Alpine Platform to Middleton has become more problematic lately with more conductors shorting to each other. The crew discussed the problems and then "walked" the project to better understand and determine the best way to replace this cable at a later date.
     Mapes Crossing Impedance Bonds
Replacement has been delayed until a future date.
