Agriculture (Bury It!)

We buried one 4" in clay soil and acquired the signal December – April. (We also buried at 10 and 40", not able to connect until I dug them up!!)  Sprayed them off, replaced the battery, good as new! If someone wants to bury a DROP, we recommend the D1 as there are fewer openings for water penetration. Spec for DROPs are rated IP67 waterproof for 30 minutes; as long as they are not “submerged”.  A user could always place one in a waterproof bag if they feared standing water for longer durations of time.
