The reason for this is that several attempts to upload new (gps week rollover compliant) firmware in the SNR-8000 receiver were unsuccessful and caused the receiver to stop operating. Since it had already been planned to upgrade the receiver to an ACT model, in view of the increasing data dropouts due to high ionospheric levels in this region, we decided to suspend operations temporarily. The receiver will be shipped to AOA for repair and upgrade in the next few days. It is hoped normal operations will resume soon. We apologize for the inconvenience this may may cause. The upgraded receiver should provide improved performance, however. Boudewijn and Danny [Mailed From: Boudewijn Ambrosius ]
