The change occurred at 14:26UTC August 5, 2004 (doy 218). The replacement receiver is configured to use an external 5MHz reference from the station's Sigma Tau maser. I'd also like to acknowledge support from the PTVLBA station staff. Please note: The metadata in the RINEX as-published is correct in regard to the change in equipment, but the anticipated sitelog submission and IGSmail announcement failed to materialize (apparently my punishment for taking a day off). This shall be remedied today. The current receiver information is as follows: Ashtech (UZ CGRS) microZ s/n UC1200343001 p/n 800960-32B firmware CN00 Apologies for any inconvenience caused. Best regards, -dave Maintenance and operations of the PIE1 station is a collaborative effort supported by JPL, UNAVCO, NGS, and the NRAO Pie Town VLBA Station with funding provided by NASA's Earth Science Enterprise.
