The Astronomical Society of Australia has been asked by STANDARDS AUSTRALIA to compile a list of "designated" optical observatories that are valuable resources for (i) research, (ii) education and (iii) community use. The ASA is the final arbiter of whether any particular observatory is so designated. ... Upon receipt of your application form, your observatory will be entered on a list of "Pending Designated Observatories" on the ASA Home Page. ... It will be emailed for you. ... Email . ...

... New offset/filter box. A new filter/box is available. ... It is lighter, smaller and sturdier than the filter/clock and offset boxes used till now. ... The offset is stabilized to a few parts in a million. ... Notice that only positions 0-3 are meaningful, while values of 4 and above will leave the signal unfiltered. The box has one input BNC, and two output BNC: one outputs the signal with the same polarity as the input, the other reverses the signal (remember that FIRPO has negative output). ...

Geomagnetic disturbances can be monitored by ground-based magnetic observatories recording the three magnetic field components. The global Kp index is obtained as the mean value of the disturbance levels in the two horizontal field components, observed at 13 selected, subauroral stations . ... Geomagnetic activity is the occurrence of K variations. ... But K still remains a local index, describing disturbances in the vicinity of each observatory. ...

The GPS and GPS Common-view are the methods used to refer measurements made using the Parkes observatory clock ("UTC(PKS)") to Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). ... Transfer from UTC(AUS) to UTC is possible via the offsets reported in Circular T. These methods of the clock corrections commenced on the MDJ 50844. ... Currently used scheme is fully integrated into tempo2 , where fairly regularly sampled values of the offset between pairs of clocks are recorded in ASCII text files, one pair per file. ...
