Subject: [SIR-Mail] No.936: igs08_1788.atx: Update including GLONASS-M satellite R754 From: Laura Sanchez This a copy of [IGSMAIL-6899] igs08_1788.atx: Update including GLONASS-M satellite R754 Dear IGS colleagues! The absolute IGS antenna correction file (igs08_wwww.atx) has been updated. The new release is called ´igs08_1788.atx´. It contains the following changes: 1) A GLONASS-M satellite launched on 23 March 2014 was added with a preliminary z-offset value of 245 cm: R18 (R754) 2) A decommission date for the following satellite has been added: R18 (R714): 10 April 2014 Obviously, both satellites transmitted signals on DOY 101 (11 April 2014) and DOY 102 (12 April 2014). As more observation data seems to be available for R754, those two days were attributed to the newly launched satellite for the time being. This could be changed later on.
