On day 2019/310, 2019-11-06 the SEPT POLARX5 receiver on station KIR000SWE was updated to firmware 5.3.0
Please be advised that by mistake, files with mixed firmware versions were uploaded to datacenters BKG and BEV.
The daily files and hourly file for hour Q has data from both before and after the receiver was updated.
[EUREFmail-09774] -2019-03-12 (18/03/2019)
Rinex3 files from stations KIR000SWE and MAR600SWE between DOY 051/2019 and 057/2019 have wrongly contained some rinex2 type observations mixed with Rinex3 types.
New corrected daily files have been uploaded to BKG and BEV.
Files with bad observation types have a data source from streamed data (filenames KIR000SWE_S_..., MAR600SWE_S_...) while the corrected files have data source receiver (filenames KIR000SWE_R_..., MAR600SWE_R_...)
[EUREFmail-9500] -2018-07-26 (30/07/2018)

[IGSSTATION-5216] -2012-12-13 (13/12/2012)
I would just like to inform you that the receiver history of the Swedish IGS-station KIR0 has been changed in the log-file.
The site started in IGS as the IGEX/IGLOS station KR0G and became 2003-08-19 the IGS-station KIR0. KIR0 was already before that date included in EPN, where it submitted data from a GPS only receiver connected to the same antenna. The old IGS-site log reflects the receiver history of KR0G before 2003-08-19, the new one is identical to the EPN site log, i.e. reflecting the GPS only receiver before 2003-08-19.
The new site-log complies with the data in the RINEX-archives at IGS and EPN.
