GPS TRACKER id: XMIS
DOMES No.       50183M001
CDP No.         N/A
MONUMENT NO.         
LOCATION.       Christmas Island

ADVISORY:

The original receiver at XMIS island has started tracking satellites again, and the
site is now operational from DoY 202 05h00Z. The problem was with a faulty
external antenna cable, this section has been replaced and tracking returned to normal.

The receiver at XMIS has now been changed to a LEICA GRX1200GGPRO from DoY 204
at 00h00Z, with the original Ashtech UZ-12 remaining as a back up receiver. This station will now be observing GPS+GLONASS data, and providing
a real-time stream in RTCM3 format for the RTIGS pilot project. An updated site
log has been submitted to the IGSCB and the Geoscience Australia ftp server,
detailing these changes.

It is our intention to replace the Paroscientific Met3A sensor on site in the next few days,
once this has been successfully completed another Station mail will be posted
along with an update site log submitted to the IGSCB. 

Regards
Michael Moore
