Dear Colleagues,

The McMurdo, Ross Island (MCM4) station had a short data outage on February 7th (2008.038) 00:00 - 00:07 UTC. The antenna cable was disconnected at the receiver end and re-routed through a new bulkhead connector in the building housing the GPS equipment. The antenna and radome were not disturbed. An updated log has been submitted to the IGS-CB regarding the new cable routing and the length of the antenna cable.

We apologize for the inconvenience this outage may have caused.

Maintenance and operations of the MCM4 station is a collaborative effort supported by JPL and UNAVCO with funding provided by NASA's Earth Surface and Interior Focus Area - Science Mission Directorate.

Best regards,

-Oivind Ruud
