Recently, two fairly large orders came in that reinforced this impression. The combination of the DW Aquadopp’s ability to be deployed for very long unattended periods of time, with the well-documented performance of these instruments in low-scattering environments, has convinced the demanding users of deep-water instrumentation to go for the DW Aquadopp. No publisher ketil-horn Press releases 2008-06-27T11:18:30Z News Item http://www.nortek-as.com/news/nortekusa-user-symposium-vicksburg The annual NortekUSA user seminar on May 14-16 came to an end late Friday, after three days of technology discussions, user presentations, training sessions, and a live Blues band and catfish fry.
