We set up new GPS receiver, Trimble NetRS, under existing GPS antenna, Novatel GPS-503, at GMSD on December. However, new GPS receiver did not work completely. We gave up tuning it. Now, we started calling for bids for another GPS receiver and another GPS antenna. According to our bids rule, it takes a few months to close bids. So, period of data outage will continue by middle of March. We apologies for the inconvenience.
