Dear all,
As of 20/11/2012 13:00UTC our GNSS station at Kourou is running with a new
multi-GNSS Septentrio receiver and antenna. Data is not yet uploaded to
the CDDIS server, but will be so within next few days when testing has
concluded.
Details of the changes are as follows.
3.14 Receiver Type : SEPT POLARX4
Satellite System : GPS+GLO+GAL+CMP+QZSS+SBAS
Serial Number : 3001301
Firmware Version : 2.3.4
Elevation Cutoff Setting : 0
Date Installed : 2012-11-20T13:00Z
Date Removed : (CCYY-MM-DDThh:mmZ)
Temperature Stabiliz. : 1
Additional Information : (multiple lines)
4.8 Antenna Type : SEPCHOKE_MC NONE
Serial Number : 5129
Antenna Reference Point : BAM
Marker->ARP Up Ecc. (m) : 0.0850
Marker->ARP North Ecc(m) : 0.0000
Marker->ARP East Ecc(m) : 0.0000
Alignment from True N : 0
Antenna Radome Type : NONE
Radome Serial Number :
Antenna Cable Type : (vendor & type number)
Antenna Cable Length : (m)
Date Installed : 2012-11-20T13:00Z
Date Removed : (CCYY-MM-DDThh:mmZ)
Additional Information : (multiple lines)
Also, the external reference has changed from 5MHz to 10MHz using the same
maser as before with a frequency doubler, which might slightly affect the
stability of the clock.
On another note, the station NNOR which was upgraded last month, is now
providing data after several weeks of maintenance and network issues at
the station, and this data will be available on CDDIS servers at the same
time as the KOUR data, most probably at the end of this week.
Best regards
