Rain Gauge Gone Flaky -- Repaired & Back Online
I purchased a new counter module from Hobby Boards, received it, installed it, and everything seems normal again.

Rain Gauge Gone Flaky -- Took it Offline
The 1-Wire counter in my rain gauge suddenly started counting up all by itself, reporting impossibly large rainfall accumulation.
I have taken it offline and I ordered a new counter.
The new counter does not have the same physical dimensions, so I will have to improvise and modify the rain gauge in
order to mount the circuit board and reed switch.

Welcome!
This site is dedicated to my interest in engineering. I use it as a place to just put stuff "out there" for anyone who
might be interested, as well as a job search tool. This page contains my engineering web log (to your left). Anything that
seems timeless enough, or too involved for a log entry may get it's own page as a full-blown article. And, of course, my resume
is here for anyone who might be considering hiring me to do something. Email me.
About Me
I have worked as a broadcast engineer, electronics designer (analog and digital) and software developer. I especially
enjoy audio engineering, although I've been writing software for the last several years, since that's where the opportunities
are in the Pacific Northwest (this is Microsoft country after all). I'm currently working as a Senior Staff Engineer -- Resume at another large independent software vendor in Washington State.
I majored in mathematics and physics in college. Other interests include music appreciation (baroque, classical and early
romantic, ragtime, and 60's and 70's rock & roll), high fidelity audio electronics, meteorology and of course, computing
hardware and software. I tend to think a lot like this guy.
