Since yesterday, the modifications of the air conditioning induced large variations of the clock signal used to drive the receiver Z12T. So, I think it could be better to avoid to use BRUS in the IGS time scale computations until everything will be working properly in the new location. I will inform you at that time. I apologize for this inconvenience, but it is for getting better!

Best regards, The antenna will stay, and the antenna cable will remain the same, only the receiver and time lab equipment will move. regards, Pascale -- __________________________________________ Pascale DEFRAIGNE Royal Observatory of BELGIUM Avenue Circulaire, 3 B-1180 BRUSSELS BELGIUM Tel.: 32 / 2 / 373 02 60 Fax : 32 / 2 / 374 98 22 e-mail: P.Defraigne@oma.be __________________________________________
