MAY 2026
- Network YB (Boorowa/Rugby; restricted) online
- new station M8.RUGBY (Rugby, NSW) added
MAR 2026
- Networks 2X, 3X, 6D, and 1H were aligned to magnetic north. Since rotated -6.5, -7.7, -5, -8.1 degrees (respectively) to fix.
6D.WGC* stations rotated an additional 180 degrees
- Network 1H had 24 db gain removed
JAN 2026
- Renaming IGU16R node channels from 'H' to 'P' type instruments in channel code
e.g. DHZ will be DPZ.
- Renaming BD3C-5 node channels from 'C' to 'D' (broadband to short-period) in channel code
e.g. CHZ will be DHZ. Since all of our BD3C deploys have been 250Hz, C -> D is consistent
The above node channel renames are being done gradually; restricted datasets will mostly
remain as they were.
- Nodal networks 2X (2022), 3X (2022), 6D (2022) had 24db gain removed.
