The tracking problem noted in IGSSTATION Mail 45219 was traced to low signal strength on the antenna cable. Fortunately, we have been able to get good data using the NetR8 with the signal amplifier in an antenna splitter. We plan to replace the buried 67 m cable in the next couple of weeks. -- Mike Craymer, Ph.D. Geodetic Survey Division, Natural Resources Canada 615 Booth Street, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0E9, Canada Tel 613-947-1829, Fax 613-992-6628, Cell 613-791-0157 Email
