MKPA/B Mark Position
This log contains the estimated position of the antenna at detected mark impulse. It uses the last valid position and
velocities to extrapolate the position at time of mark. Refer to the GPSCard Installation and Operating Manual
Appendix for Mark Input pulse specifications. The latched time of mark impulse is in GPS weeks and seconds into
the week. The resolution of the latched time is 49 ns.
