Hi

Habitat

<p>Hi Yvonne.</p> <p>I again tried to calbrate the EC with the 1413 solution, although the unit sensed 1413 it could not calibrate correctly&nbsp; (1570-1630) so Im assuming it may be the tester itself, I have had it a long while.</p> <p>Also Im afraid I dropped the dissolved oxygen glass mixing bottle, I have had that since 2004, Im surprised it lasted that long working in the field.</p> <p>I will be away from home from the 1st December to around the the 8th but my wife will be home if you have to drop off within that time otherwise I will remind you later in December.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Cheers.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Terry.</p>
