Dear Colleagues,

We have performed on IGS station OPMT a change of external reference 
clock on DOY 205, MJD 56497, Wednesday July 24, 2013, at about 15:00 
UTC. The new reference clock is again an H-Maser, so we expect the 
performances of data collected by OPMT to remain similar.

We advise potential users that OPMT data files might be corrupted for 
DOY 205.

A new log file for OPMT is joined to that email.

Please feel free to contact us in the case more detailed information 
would be needed.
Best regards.
Pierre Uhrich.
