We got similar good performance doing suppression pool diving at LaSalle in Feb 
2019.  Connected active antenna to AWM to increase signal gain.  If you just 
put the DMC3000 underwater and the AWM in air, the AWM will pick up to about 27 
inch deep in water before signal gets too weak to be picked up by AWM.  In the 
dive suit with some air gap and powered gain in the antenna you can get 
consistent reception.  All dives going forward are DMC3000, powered active 
antenna to increase gain, and AWM.  Diving activities were the last use for 
DMC2000 dosimeters and now we're all DMC3000.  Its great to only need to 
support one model of dosimeter.

They worked great at Browns Ferry. Used them the last outage when we cut up our 
Steam dryer as part of EPU.  Used them with the active dive antenna and AWM.  
That evolution consisted of almost three weeks of diving.  The updates much 
faster than the old system as did not have to deal with the iMUX.  I was 
skeptical at first but after using it the last outage would not want to go 
back.  The update time for each of the dosimeters was 4-8 seconds which was 
much better than we saw with the old system.

Will be diving again this upcoming outage.

TVA External Message. Please use caution when opening.
Fermi is planning on it and has purchased all the equipment for our torus 
recoat project.  Decided to go that way after feedback from Brown's Ferry, 
Hatch and a couple others.  We'll see how that works out.  They all liked it 
better than the imux.
