Dear IGS Colleagues,

Following IGSMail #2231, we received several suggestions for additions
to the new file rcvr_ant.tab which gives approved naming conventions for
equipment used at IGS stations.

An updated file FUTURErcvr_ant.tab is now available in 
ftp://igscb.jpl.nasa.gov/igscb/test, along with a phase center file
FUTUREigs_01.pcv, the SINEX file FUTUREigs.snx and associated error
file FUTUREigs.snx.err.  The latter two are generated daily on the
same schedule as the current official SINEX in
ftp://igscb.jpl.nasa.gov/igscb/station/general.

Please examine these files and prepare for *26 May*, when the FUTURE files
will become the official ones in the igscb/station/general area.

The Infrastructure Committee is aware that phase center values do not
appear in the FUTUREigs_01.pcv file for all antennae in the 
FUTURErcvr_ant.tab file.  A subcommittee is tasked with gathering 
accepted values for the other antennae, and meanwhile I have checked and 
found that there are no active IGS sites using an antenna without a phase
center value in the .pcv file.

Please contact me as soon as possible with any new concerns
for the switchover!!

Best regards,
Angie
