[ANSS-netops] GPS failure at New Mexico Tech Seismological Observatory

[Gee, Lind]

Another forwarded message .... It looks like we are having some problems
with non-USGS emails.  I've reported the problem to the Web folk.

>From Mitch Withers:

We had a problem with the week rollover last August.  I'm not sure this one
is the same because 1024 weeks is about 19 years.  So if week 0 is 1999,
then
this particular clock shouldn't have the problem for another 4 years or so.
The first week rollover was in August of 1999 so this is suspicious but
many manufacturers put hooks in during the 90's to delay it (by 19 years
after the date of manufacture).  For the XLAK we had to use F68 to set the
current year, then do a warm start to correct the problem.
