Battery Notes:

Towers and Antennas:

Tower inspection includes: Checking for structural damage, tight fasteners, grounding, guy wires (if applicable), tower
base(s), ice bridge, cable boots, aircraft warning lighting (if applicable), corrosion, foundation for settling/cracking, correct
cable hangers, antenna mounts, antennas/dishes, antenna tuners, weatherproofing, cabling, and weather cameras.
Antennas to be swept with cable/antenna analyzer.
Tower Notes:

Propane Tanks:
Tank Inspection Includes: Checking gauges (correct and operational), tank levels (similar to electronic readings), for
leaks,tank supports, straps and tie downs, yellow caps in place, hood (present and correct hardware), fuel lines, valves
open, regulators and corrosion.
Propane Tank Notes:

Generator and Associated Equipment

Generator Inspection includes: Checking all fluids/filters (change if scheduled), loose hardware, belt tension, guards, plugs,
coolant specific gravity, all cycles/fans/louvers operate as designed, both engines start/run, hoses, leaks, cylinder head
pressure, RBS cabinet (values calibrated/clean/cables), rectifier cabinet (clean/corrosion/water intrusion), inverter
(operational), propane detector, heater/filter and temperature sending units.
Generator Notes:

Communications Equipment:
Communications Equipment inspection to include all equipment located within the electronics shelter (see below). All
equipment tested and/or aligned per QWI specifications and information logged in database. Any discrepancies noted
below. Equipment to include: VHF radios, HF radio, weather xmtr(s), mux(s), microwave(s), inverter, modem(s), low voltage
disconnect, receivers, patch panel(s), punch blocks and associated wiring/cabling, and all ventilation equipment. This list is
not all inclusive.

General Cleanup and Departure Inspection

Satisfactory

Inspection includes bundling and combining extra waste and placing near fuel tanks for removal during refuel, ensuring all
switches in appropriate spots (generators, exhaust fan, master batteries, lights off, etc...), inventory of site consumables
taken (MRE's, Drinking H20, Lube Oil, Filters, Propane, Pads, etc....), Ops check with watchstander and all tools/gear
gathered and removed.
