Great news! With the latest trip to the site this week (Oct. 26th) the electronics at the Blackstone site are fully functioning! Along with the restoration of the internet connection, normal operations have resumed for this site as it was before the Univ. of Leicester electronics were packed up and shipped out of the country this past July.
A few changes to the new electronics can be observed on the Real-Time Data display, found in the left bar of the website. Of these changes, the radar's boresite is now at -40 degrees, the beam separation is 3.24 degrees, and the radar is now running with 24 beams.
