HBA progress - 71 tiles installed

Here is the new completion map for the LOFAR-Chilbolton HBA antenna installation. Today's progress is marked in light blue.



The current status is:

-- 13 tiles were installed on Friday 2nd (red)
-- 14 tiles were installed on Monday 5th (orange)
-- 18 tiles were installed on Tuesday 6th (yellow)
-- 8 tiles were installed on Wednesday 7th (light green)
-- 10 tiles were installed on Thursday 8th (dark green)
-- 8 tiles were installed on Friday 9th (light blue)


Today was an extremely hot day. Working with 5x5m black boxes in the direct sunshine was very uncomfortable for the Chilbolton crew. Still, good progress was made. 71 out of 97 now complete.
