Had a tough day at the lake, both the floats that mark our transmitter mounts in the lake were gone, we found one but were there til 9pm and couldn't find the other. With all that we didn't get the buoys in either.

All that to say we still have some work to do but will do some testing in the morning then get back at at. We'll post here when we get it all set up, worst case we will be able to run oval only.
