Dear colleagues,

Please be informed that our station PERT (Perth, Australia) is providing GPS
data from a newly installed receiver (updated SIF below) as of today (01162).
Hourly and daily RINEX data files will be made available through the IGS Data
Centres.  The updated SIF has also been submitted to the IGS Central Bureau.

Best Regards,
