  1. The stations are ISHIOKA (Is), ONSA13NE (Oe), ONSA13SW (Ow), KOKEE (Kk), WETTZELL (Wz), SVETLOE (Sv) and MK-VLBA (Mk). The VGOS-B baseline with the longest extension in the XY-plane, and thus most sensitive for the determination of UT1-UTC, is Is-Ow with about 7773 km. The INT1-baselines with the longest extension in the XY-plane are Mk-Wz with about 10,136 km and Kk-Wz with about 10,072 km
