Comments:

(1)  Nominal period for station amplitude calibration, as requested by the GMVA Technical Group (GTG).
     The actual period when amplitude calibration is performed can be chosen by each individual observatory.

(2)  Traditional fringe-verification test. This specific 2-hour interval was recommended by the GTG.
