2014-05-13 13:51ALLALL deployed by Commercial Divers,
2014-05-25 00:00metair_temperature-3Air temperature readings becoming more erratic and unstable - flagged sensor as invalid.
2014-07-29 00:00goesALL-3Air temperature readings of -8190 corrupting Goes checksum1 - modified processing code to ignore checksums of -8190.
2014-08-21 11:00waves_3ALL0Last data received from microstrain directional wave sensor.
2014-11-03 19:00ALLALL0Last cellphone data received (battery dropping too low). Backup Goes is still transmitting.
2014-11-07 08:00ALLALL0Last Goes data received - battery below 11 volts. No data from this buoy are being received.
2014-12-12 11:00ALLALL recovered by contractor vessel, time approximate.


Notes: Sensors highlighted in red indicate problems with this sensor during deployment. Depth is measured relative to the ocean surface with positive depths indicating depths below the ocean surface. Negative depths are heights above the surface. In the case of doppler current measurements, the depth indicates depth of first measurement:delta-depth:depth of last measurement. For instance, 10:4:106 represents currents measured every 4 meters from 10 meters down to 106 meters (28 depths in all).
