Keeping Up With The Joneses

After installing our 114 shinny new AMISR panels we sat back to admire our handy work. We glanced across the street at the neighbours and admired their 128 panels. Then we looked at our 114 panels again. Then we got to thinking about this inequity. Well the next thing you know we are over at the north face with a crane pulling RISR-N panels and putting them on RISR-C. Now each radar as 121 panels and everyone is happy (we really had to restrain ourselves, but we managed to stop before we took an extra panel or two). The end result is that now RISR-N and RISR-C are identical twins instead of fraternal twins (only their mother can tell them apart).

Extracting one of 7 panels from RISR-N

RISR-C in all its glory (it is missing a few Antenna Element Units on the bottom row).
