ADVISORY:
 
Following a very quick & smooth upgrade of equipment at the Antarctic
station, MAW1 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 341 and 342 whilst the change over took place. The station is again
operational with data available.
Users of the data from this site will need to note the receiver change.

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