Where do the trackers live until WRSCSS2019?

So far:

  • 3 functioning trackers with waterproof boxes (no batteries) are with Anna
  • I recall one trackers seemed to have some GPS fix problems (@takluyver do you know more?)
  • One tracker that was not used this year has a blown capacitor, it might be possible to get it to work again
  • There are three boards with changed placement which need soldering of parts and design of a tiny extra SIM card board

For better tracking of the issues with the different boards, I would suggest to give each of the hardware boards an ID. We'll have an easier time tracking which are old/remade design, and which might have the same problem regularly.

For the remaining trackers and spare parts, there are good reasons for either Southampton (Tony), Bremen (Sophia), or Brest (Fabrice)...

I don't think I do, sorry. We had occasional issues with the trackers resetting themselves, and the issue with the micro-SD card getting dislodged. Andi spent more time working on the trackers, though - maybe he has an idea?

I think you are talking about tracker 5, used by Southampton on the first few days. I'm not sure if that was general problem with holes in the live data, which I already reported in #39...
