today was rather brutal. I hate getting home at 1AM and having to leave the house at 7 30 am to be back there at 9 am.... 4 days in a row.

The reason they wanted to raise the scale is that the Scale was Originally Planned to be 1' Above grade( for drainage ) , at steel mills they Grind up Slag and start pouring it on the ground , Grade it , let 200,000 lbs truck run over it add some more slag , grade it , etc,,, until they end up with a Basically Stable road , but it still Needs grading and they Are ALL ways adding more slag and rock ,
This and a few other scales in the area have ended up a few inches to a foot Below grade , so every thing Drains TO the scale and it packs Up in Mud that May as well be cement ( Slag , Lime stone dust , and Gumbo Mud ) .
This is the Last scale I Have to deal with in this Area that has this Problem ,
The customer wanted it done Quick and Cheap, Now If the welders would Just Get their Pantys OUT of a WAD , we could Proceed .

Below ended up on a few welders Tool Boxes

Today, like every day, I did a bunch of crap. But I made one of our people really excited when I sent her on a business trip to France.

I measured Disturbance Rejection. Of a 40dB swing, from 1Hz to 10kHz.

Meh. I've been working in dB (log) space for a 12 years now. It just takes time.
