The Time Service Catalogue (TSC), which is obligatory for use in all USSR Time Services, was created for the epoch 1958 in the 1970s. Research done in the succeeding years detected a seasonal variation of TSC errors. Thus, a new Time Service Catalogue (TSC2) was required, in order to remove the seasonal errors as well as to satisfy the increasing demands for accuracy in the determination of universal time. During 1986-88 the data of Kharkov Common Time Service for 1980-1987 were reanalyzed using the new system of astronomical constants and two new catalogues were produced.
