Keeping the owls company

It is not just the owls who are up late, staff at Chilbolton are working all hours too as the HBA installation started this morning. This update was sent to me at 3am this morning.

A confirmation phone call from the installation company (Autonational) has confirmed that their engineers are in the area and will be on site at the crack of dawn. Also, the first delivery is now due earlier than expected. Then, to make matters worse, it seems that some of the work that should have been completed by Friday remains undone.

Another load of equipment is taken out to the LOFAR construction compound ready for the morning.
