1# Changelog
2## 2.13.7 (2026-??-??)
3- ADDED: PPP-AR Algorithm description is now part of BNCs help contents
4- ADDED: L1C/B (RINEX code: '1E') in QZSS Signal ID Mapping
5- ADDED: Minimum Elevation parameter to BNC's RINEX Editing & QC feature [(#195)](https://software.rtcm-ntrip.org/ticket/195)
6- ADDED: Possibility to select how satellite attitude is modelled when converting Antenna Phase Center (APC) corrections to
7Center-of-Mass (CoM) positions required for SP3 output. Three options are available: (1) Computed (default): BNC applies its own kinematic attitude model: GPS noon/midnight turn manoeuvres (Kouba 2009/2015, Bar-Sever 1996), GLONASS yaw-fixed mode (Dilssner et al. 2011), and
8Galileo / BDS orbit-normal mode switching (Kouba 2017, Dai et al. 2015, Steigenberger et al. 2018). (2) Nominal: a simplified, continuous Sun-pointing model is used without any manoeuvre modelling. (3) SSR: the yaw angle transmitted in the SSR phase bias message is used directly, if present for the satellite and epoch. [(#210)](https://software.rtcm-ntrip.org/ticket/210)
9- FIXED: BNC is now able to work with com ports with higher numbers, e.g. COM11 or COM17 [(#205)](https://software.rtcm-ntrip.org/ticket/205)
10- FIXED: Handling of ionospheric constraints [(#220)](https://software.rtcm-ntrip.org/ticket/220)
11- FIXED: SP3/Clock RINEX clock values produced by the Upload Corrections feature no longer depend on whether 'Center of Mass' is ticked, since that setting should only affect the uploaded SSR Broadcast Correction stream [(#210)](https://software.rtcm-ntrip.org/ticket/210)
