<p>Dear Data Centers,</p>
<p>Please note that a recent IGS station file has been published and
it is incorrect. The file Rinex 2 ramo2940.19d.Z needs to be
removed from your data directories, please.</p>
<p>CDDIS has already removed the file please remove the file from
the other data centers. Thanks.</p>
<p>>teqc +qcq ramo2940.19o<br>
<br>
teqc: failure to read ' 2.11 OBSERVATION DATA M
(MIXED) RINEX VERSION / TYPE' on line 12 of
'ramo2940.19o'<br>
(bad scan of RINEX version, type, and system or multiple
'RINEX VERSION / TYPE' lines) ... exiting<br>
<br>
</p>
<p>Also please implement some QC at your Data Center so that you
only publish correct Rinex 2/Rinex 3 files and that bad station
files do not get published.</p>
<p>This file already caused problems for some of our users so
avoiding these issues should be a priority.</p>
<p>I have contacted the station operator as well and hopefully they
will also implement some QC before they publish files. On the
other hand this is the second time this year this happens from the
same site (previous incorrect file was ramo2260.19d.Z) so we need
to have more than one line of defense against bad data files.<br>
</p>
<p>Thanks and best regards,<br>
</p>
