[IGSSTATION-6295] OPMT: change of reference clock.

[Pierre Uhrich]

Author: Pierre Uhrich (LNE-SYRTE, Observatoire de Paris)

Dear Colleagues,

We have carried out a change of external clock for the IGS station OPMT on DOY 238, MJD 57260, Wednesday August 26, 2015.
The reference clock is from now on directly UTC(OP), the real time prediction of UTC produced in Observatoire de Paris (OP).
The change occurred between 16:00 and 17:20 UTC. We advise potential users that OPMT data files might be corrupted for DOY 238.

UTC(OP) is currently generated in an independent way from an H-maser ensemble steered on the LNE-SYRTE Primary and Secondary Frequency Standards, which are a Cesium fountain FO1, a Cesium/Rubidium fountain FO2 and a mobile fountain FOM. When required, an additional frequency steering is achieved monthly after BIPM Circular T is released, depending on the offset between UTC and UTC(OP). During the last twelve months, the departure of UTC(OP) from UTC did not exceed 3.4 ns.

A new log file for OPMT is joined below.

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