Under the equipment component, two automatic weather stations were installed
at Gokwe and Gutsaka, with the project providing for the site preparation
and installations, as well as the required on-the-job training. One upper-air
station was installed at Victoria Falls and various types of observational
equipment were provided to rehabilitate a number of old stations. In addition,
a total of nine optical theodolites were overhauled and are now in use
at Kariba, Gikwe, Beitbridge, Kadoma, Mutoko, Masvingo, Harare and Hwange
National Park. Furthermore, the project provided ten HF transceivers and
three facsimile receivers. The facsimile receivers were installed at Victoria
Falls, Chiredzi and Gweru. Three vehicles and one mobile workshop were
also provided to improve station inspection and field maintenance of meteorological
equipment.
