MONUMENT No.    924000
LOCATION:       Lac DuBonnet, Manitoba, Canada

Two Notices follow:
1) Receiver Change
2) Site communication update (follow on to IGS Station Mail 214)

1) Receiver Change
++++++++++++++++++

The GPS receiver was replaced at DUBO effecive 2004-11-26T20:00Z as follows:


3.6  Receiver Type            : AOA SNR-8000 ACT
     Satellite System         : GPS
     Serial Number            : T292-U
     Firmware Version         : 3.3.32.5
     Elevation Cutoff Setting : 5
     Date Installed           : 2004-11-26T20:00Z
     Date Removed             : 
     Temperature Stabiliz.    : none
     Additional Information   : 

The old receiver was a ROGUE SNR-8000.
The last data point with the old receiver was 2004-11-26T18:48Z.

The data file for D331 (dubo3310.04d.Z) is complete for the entire 24 hour
period and will therefore contain data from both the old and new receiver.

An updated site log has been submitted to the CB and is also available from
ftp://wcda.pgc.nrcan.gc.ca/pub/siteinfo/


2) Site Communications Update
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

As noted in IGS Station Mail 214 (2004-10-22) we were experiencing
communication problems to the site. These have been traced to moisture in
the communication (telephone) lines to the site. The provider has assured us
that these lines will be replaced as soon as practically possible. In the
meantime we may experience intermittant problems, including disruption to
the tracking as the noise does occasionally affect this type of receiver. We
will endeavour to keep these to a minimum but appreciate your patience until
the issue gets resolved - the onet of colder temperature may help to
alleviate the problem in the interim (one can hope).


Best Regards

Mike
