The new version 1.2 allows for the serial number of the reference antenna as well as for the calibration method "ROBOT". Besides, the use of ".atx" as file extension is recommended. Following the recommendation of the last IGS Workshop in Bern/Switzerland, that ANTEX should become the official IGS format, the file format description "antex12.txt" can now be found at "ftp://igscb.jpl.nasa.gov/igscb/station/general". At the same place, a file named "igs_01.atx" is located that contains the relative receiver antenna phase center offsets and variations given in the file "igs_01.pcv" (Previously valid old antenna names have not been included anymore!). Moreover, "relative" satellite antenna phase center offsets and variations (zero patterns) have been added. For those who are interested, a test set of absolute receiver and satellite antenna phase center corrections can still be found at "ftp://igscb.jpl.nasa.gov/igscb/station/general/pcv_proposed".
