MONUMENT NO.      AUS100

ADVISORY:
 
Following a successful upgrade of equipment at the Antarctic station, CAS1
the following significant change has been made:
The AOA ICS-4000Z ACT receiver has been removed and replaced with the ASHTECH
UZ-12 receiver. The main reason for the change is to enable real-time data to
be available from this station in the future.
There was a short data outage for doy 298 whilst the upgrade and local
monitoring survey was performed.
The station is again operational with data available from doy 299.

I apologise for the disruption to this service during the scheduled outage. 
 
An updated station site log has been submitted.
 
Regards
Bob
