But even that is not that difficult, if you have some estimate of the target's location. Or you can simply not care about it, if you have a slow moving target, like a car or a ship, as the re-aquisition will take less than a minute.

I recently did a crude delay estimation for WWV (not WWVB) using my Sony ICF-2010 receiver, a 2-channel DSO, and an Adafruit "Ultimate GPS" module's PPS output. The combined (receiver + propagation) delay was very close to 5 msec in Kerrville, TX.

This is made up from estimates of each cabinet member (and others) who get their numbers from the various institutions within their silos (e.g., NIST under Commerce). Because no department head wants their budget cut, they ensure that items put up for "cutting" are ones that the public is most likely to complain (to congress) about.

This helps to explain the improved performance of regression based frequency estimation. So, ADEV is far from the right tool for everything. In fact, it is greatly misused. > 2.

First thing we need is an estimate of the thermal resistance of the system. Something in the order of 10K/W to 100K/W are probably sane values. Let's go with 10K/W for a worst-case scenario. Now we go from a temperature difference of 1K to 0.9K over 1000s.

It goes back to Loveland this September, and now there will be "before" and "after" data which will provide an estimate of drift in parameters. It is not an -02 high-stability option unit.

Highlights for the day(combined total- Herring Cove Beach and on the Dolphin X)- Terns- 400 (rough estimate) (mostly Common- I didn't examine the small groups for other species) Forster's Tern- 13 Black Tern- 1 (a single bird flying off Long Point) Least Tern- 1 (a surprising single bird flying along the breakwater on the trip in to port) Caspian Tern?

The winds backed to northeast briefly and caused some birds to head out away from the hot corner, and with so few birders being present the total numbers seen or estimated are almost certainly low for what really went by. The mix is starting to include decent numbers of Yellow-rumpeds but Blackpolls are still the dominant bird at the moment.
