For those of you tracking PRN17 and monitoring the L2C signal, you will
need an updated Dat2Rin utility to correctly format the RINEX into
v2.11.  Older versions of the conversion utility do not recognize the
flags set in the Trimble DAT files.  This results in RINEX files that
may cause issues in some geodetic software.  Although the RINEX 2.11
format is as yet unofficial, this utility is based on the latest
version.  So please be aware that the format is not yet finalized.

The new version is 3.50 and can be found at:

Note it is the link at the top of the page (and not the older version at
the bottom).  Should there be any questions or issues relating to this
please contact Trimble_Support at Trimble.com
