Field Research

Field Research is a side quest .
==Background==
In order to restore full functionality to the Sink's biological research station and the jukebox, the Courier needs to find additional materials. The station is interested in dried seed packages that will allow it to cultivate its hydroponic garden, while the jukebox needs audio samples to provide additional frequencies for the sonic emitter.

===Audio tapes===
* The first audiotape, Opera Singer, can be found in Higgs Village, in house #108. It is resting on the nightstand in the master bedroom upstairs.
* The second audiotape, Giant Tarantula, can be found in Higgs Village, in house #00. It is in the leftmost room upstairs, on an empty terminal.
* The third audiotape, Gabriel's Bark, can be found at the residential test facility, located during (or after) the player completes the Sonic Emitter Upgrade quest. The location of the tape is marked on the map once the residential cyberdog guard test is activated. Select the test, and avoid or kill Gabe. Once he is taken care of, look for the tape in one of Gabe's dig spots. The exact dig spot is randomly selected.
* The fourth audiotape, Mobius' Robo-scorpion, can be found in the Forbidden Zone. It is found on a table at the far end of the room, on the upper-level balcony.
===Seed packages===
* One seed package can be found at the X-22 botanical garden. It is on the second level of the building, guarded by a few spore carriers, spore plants, and Patient Zero, a unique spore carrier.
* Another seed package sits near a fountain northeast of the Signal Hills transmitter. It is guarded by a few spore plants, including the unique spore plant, Dionaea Muscipula.
* A third seed package can be found north of the second noted seed package at the Signal Hills transmitter, across the pipe, near a spore plant.
Once everything is collected, return to the Sink and install the upgrades into their respective appliances.
