Description:Three years of Mobile Very Long Baseline Interferometry (MVLBI) data in the conterminous Western United States have been processed using the SOLVE3 program. The solutions allow separate estimates of the mobile station position for each occupation while using all the data to adjust the source positions. Independent estimates of Earth orientation allow the results to be presented as latitude, longitude, and height for each station as a function of time. Graphs are presented of the horizontal positions which clearly show the northwestward movement of stations west of the San Andreas fault at a rate of about 3 cm/yr. Furthermore, all the California stations appear to be moving northward at 2 cm/yr with respect to stations at Plattville, CO, Ely, NV, and Flagstaff, AZ. Summaries of all the baselines are also presented.
