Hi Folks,
Was looking on https://geodesy.noaa.gov/ANTCAL/# and I can see that the Facet has a calibration with an ARP of 71.84. I am wondering if there is plans to submit the L-Band Facet as well?
Right now I am running off the sticker value of 69mm, and when using OPUS, I am using the facet antenna profile with an -0.0028m offset, but noting the facet went from 61.4mm to 71.84mm I am guessing there will be a similar change with the L-Band?
Am I thinking/reading this right?
Cheers,
Jake
Yep. It’s been in the hands of the NGS for a few months now. I’ll check on it.
Perfect 
thanks @sparky - looking fwd to the outcome.
The calibration of the non-L-base Facet was a game-changer for me! Thanks again Sparky for making that happen. Hopefully the L-Band Facet will be calibrated soon.
Of course! We’ve got a couple in the works but the NGS seems to be badly backed up at the moment. Four months so far.
Hi @sparky - just looping back on this one to see if there might have been any update on this?
After 17 months of asking nicely (it’s a free service after all!) the SPK6618H finally completed certification. They say the Facet L-Bands should be within the next week or two.
Was just looking for this today. Good to know it’s coming soon.
