Dear Colleagues,
The Ashtech chokering antenna at the Hartebeesthoek RAO, Krugersdorp South
Africa (HRAO) station has been replaced with an identical antenna after tracking
problems were encountered. There was unfortunately a data gap between February
13th (2006.044 ~12:30 UTC) - February 14th (2006.045 10:30 UTC). Data with the
new antenna is being published after this gap. An updated log will be submitted
to the IGS-CB shortly.
As always we would like to acknowledge the assistance of the personnel from the
Hartebeesthoek RAO in Krugersdorp in restoring operations.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
Maintenance and operations of the HRAO station is a collaborative effort
supported by JPL, UNAVCO, and the Hartebeesthoek RAO in Krugersdorp, with
funding provided by NASA's Earth Surface and Interior Focus Area - Science
Mission Directorate.
Best regards,
-Oivind Ruud
