Instruments:
 
- CTD
	- sample interval
	- clock
	- logging started
	- poison cartridges
	- batteries
	- copper wrapping
	# conductivity near zero in air, high (what is normal?) in water
	# temp reasonable
	
- pH sensor
	@ using CO2-CRM and temperature
	- output rate set (serial units)
	- batteries (2 X 3.6V lithium) 
	
- Fluorometer
	@ factory set
	# check low(dark) and high(fluorescent stick) response
	
- Optode
	@ zero with Sodium Sulfite
	@ saturation span with bubbler
	- output rate
	- new foil?
	- copper wrapping
	# reads 100% in air, less in water
	
- VR2C
	- batteries
	- update "map"?
	- clock
	- not in standby/storage mode
	# check test tag
	
- CO2 system
	@ zero and span at ocean-like temps
	@ temp-CO2 relation using zero and span gasses at range of temperatures
	@ generate fit using matlab script
	- leak check 
		- transparent equilibrator water level
		- same pressure after closed loop pumping
	- desiccant refilled
	- soda lime refilled
	# pressure readings >85kPa
	# zero +-15 ppm
	# air ~420 ppm
	# standard known value

- Airmar
	@temperature calibration against neighboring stations
	- output interval
	- GPGGA and WIMDA messages on
	# gets a correct fix
	# reasonable wind direction 
	
Hardware:
- Water pump
	-plumbed to necessary sensors (ph, optode, flour)
	#comes on with optode driver
- Radio 
	#check comms
	#leak check
- Buoy light
	-configuration?
	#check its working
- Rechargeable battery pack
	-all batteries charging (check error codes)
- Solar panels
	-test voltage from each panel with others dark
- Custom-made cables
	-locking sleeves
	-lubed
- VR2C cable protective hose (for chain section under float)
- Anti-corrosive disks (base of mooring float)
	#visual check
- Clamps for instruments
	-everything snug
	-plumbing tied down
	-bolts greased
- Cotter pins for shackles (wrapped in heat shrink)--Jared F can help make more if needed
- new nilspin cable 
- Anti-fouling paint for float
- Check and replace or grease all-thread bolts
- Make new lifting line 
- New anchor if old anchor being recovered
- New chain and shackles (when turning around)
