ADVISORY:

Dear Colleagues:

In the email [IGSSTATION-3094] we reported on tracking problems at Macquarie Island using the Trimble NETR5 which was installed on 2009-03-23T00:00Z.  We have now officially switched to the backup receiver an Ashtech UZ-12, which commenced tracking at the site on 2009-05-25T00:00Z.  The data from 2009-05-25 until present has been submitted to IGS data centres and an updated site log submitted to IGS CB.

Unfortunately the site will no longer be GLONASS capable, but it is our intention to install a GNSS capable receiver at the site in the future. 

We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused.       

Regards,

Ryan Ruddick
