Additionally, the absolute IGS antenna correction file (igs05_wwww.atx) has been updated. The new release is called 'igs05_1499.atx'. It contains the following changes:

1) The latest GLONASS-M satellites launched on 25 September 2008 have
been added with preliminary z-offset values of 230.0 cm:

R18 (R724)
R21 (R725)
R22 (R726)

[Update of preliminary z-offset values for several GPS and GLONASS satellites still pending!]

2) 'Decommission' dates for the following satellites have been added:

R18 (R783): 24 September 2008
R21 (R792): 24 September 2008
R22 (R798): 24 September 2008
