The Ashtech Micro-Z receiver and antenna at SHE2 were replaced today with a new Trimble NetR8 and choke ring antenna. The old Micro-Z would no longer track satellites and the Trimble NetR8 would not track L2 with the old Ashtech antenna. There is now a data gap from 2012-09-23 (Day 267) 11:12 UT until 2012-10-04 (Day 278) 15:39 UT.
