What We Need To Know Now Mini Computer Are we going to use one or not? Hydrophone What are your ideas for Circuit Boards? Size and appearance of the hydrophone droppers? Is there a location that you would want to see us place them? 20
21
Questions For You Is there a certain location that you see specific circuits needing to be placed? On the circuit rack for your ease of use Out of our Mechanical Targets: Are there any more that you see us needing to account for? Do you have an accurate file for the Marker Droppers 21
