From: ESOC IGS team Subject: [IGSMAIL-2427] MAS1 upgrade to ACT Date: Wed, 18 Aug 1999 4:38:52 PDT ****************************************************************************** IGS Electronic Mail Wed Aug 18 4:38:52 PDT 1999 Message Number 2427 ****************************************************************************** Author: ESOC IGS team Subject: MAS1 upgrade to ACT Subject: MAS1 upgrade to ACT After a failure in March 1999 the Maspalomas receiver was shipped for repair to AOA. This opportunity has been used to upgrade it to ACT. We apologize for the long downtime which included two shipments to AOA. The new data collection was resumed on DOY 228/99. We are following the recommendations of igsmail 2320 for the receiver downloading in the way that the cross correlation observables can be reconstituted. The rest of the ESA receivers, kiru, kour, pert and vill have been upgraded to firmware 3.2.32.9 in the last weeks for GPS roll-over compatibility and the SIF's were updated. A flash card with the new firmware has also been shipped to Malindi and we expect to make the upgrade before the roll-over. The new Maspalomas station info form is included below. Best regards.
