The radio telemetry circuit connecting the station to Chumysh is down, but no repair attempt was made because there is no longer an Internet connection to Chumysh. 2002.11.11 New EPROMs installed to correct DSP problem. 2002.09.21 Station is still down. An IDA engineer is preparing to visit the station to analyze and repair the recording problems. 2002.04.22 Station is currently down due to problems with the DAS and DAS-ISP communications hardware. Spare parts have been shipped to the station and will be installed by the operator shortly.Return to Station List.

2009.05.23 The station is up after an IDA engineer visited the station and upgraded it to a Quanterra Q330HR system. 2009.03.15 The station is down since about day 2009,073 due to problems with the DAS that are yet to be determined. 2009.01.12 ASCN timing issue The timing system at ASCN began behaving strangely on 2007:320-10:51. When this occurred, clock lock was lost, so the DAS' oscillator was no longer adjusted to the nominal data rate. After repeated attempts to resolve the problem with the assistance of the station operator, an IDA engineer traveled to the site from June 3-16, 2008. He replaced the DAS and clock but was unable to resolve the problem, which is now believed to be rooted in a grounding issue along the uplink cable. We are now planning to upgrade the data acquisition system and replace the uplink cable sometime in early 2009. Using the station's computer whose own oscillator is disciplined by NTP, it is possible to repair the timing of the data to an accuracy of less than one minute. Because the quality of the waveform data remains high, we have elected to distribute these data with bit 7 of the data quality flag in the fixed section of the SEED data header set to indicate that the time tag is questionable. Data from 2008,177 (June 25th) are distributed in this way. Peter Davis, January 12, 2009 2008.06.12 The north-south channels from the CMG3-T seismometer are non-seismic. The sensor needs to be recentered. 2008.04.07 The station operator replaced the DAS and GPS clock on day 2008,094. However, the station is still experiencing problems with the new DAS and GPS clock. 2007.11.16 The timing for data from IDA station ASCN is unreliable as of about day 2007,320 due to problems with the GPS clock and the DAS that are being investigated. 2006.05.23 The vertical channels for the CMG3-T seismometer were restored about day 139-14:26 after the station operator recentered the masses for the CMG3-T seismometer. 2006.04.12 The vertical channels for the CMG3-T seismometer are out. The station operator is requested to recenter the masses for the CMG3-T seismometer. 2004.11.05 Station is back up after the station operator replaced the power supply, LAN extender, and GPS clock.
