It's time to make our impact known!
Wed, May 4, 2005 3:33 PM
These non-marine related purchases total $91 million in retail purchases ($51.6 million for gasoline sales and $39.4 million for food, drinks and ice) and are estimated to generate economic impacts of $135 million in business volume, $34 million in personal income and 850 jobs." Whether large or small, wealthy communities do not exist in a vacuum.

Sextants
Sat, Dec 3, 2005 4:54 PM
Using a sextant to take vertical measurements of items of known height can be used to determine a range from said object, but my radar already does that so much more easilly, and range estimating binoculars are already on the market. Shooters use laser rangefinders that would also work at appropriate shorter ranges.

Re: T&T: Towing a Whaler - over long distances
Tue, Feb 7, 2006 6:18 PM
After you have estimated the required fitting and towline strengths required, double them. Have the tow well lighted so you can find it at night. Regardless of above, always have somebody with a searchlight handy to illuminate it at night when in the vicinity of other vessels. Put a radar reflector in the tow.

Single Handing

A rule of thumb to commit to memory is that almost every estimate you get from a yard, independent shipwright, or specialty shop like engine, prop, etc. will almost always be half of what the final bill will be. This is not because all these folks are dishonest (but some of them are a bit).

A conservative way to estimate frontal area is to multiply the beam by the height of the superstructure. An even simpler way is to multiply the beam by 3/4 of the beam. By this calculation, a Willard 30' trawler has about 100 sq. ft. of area. A Nordhavn 40 has 160 sq. ft. of area. A Nordhavn 47 has about 195 sq. ft. of area. A Nordhavn 72 has 330 sq.

Standard Atmosphere for air density, the equation for Drag in lbs. can be written as: Drag = .00339 x Coefficient of Drag x Knots^2 x Area A conservative way to estimate frontal area is to multiply the beam by the height of the superstructure. An even simpler way is to multiply the beam by 3/4 of the beam.

A delivery
Tue, Aug 29, 2017 4:51 PM
However, NOWHERE is there an estimate of what the current speed in MPH might be. The new owner and I corresponded frequently over the course of the delivery and we never out of synch on planning or financial needs. He wired additional monies to my checking account as cost mounted, and I sent him regular Excel spreadsheets detailing every penny.

Re: [USRP-users] x300: Unable to get Tight Syncrhonization between 2 Tx channels
Fri, Feb 20, 2015 10:06 AM
I thought your synchro issue was solved, because you did not follow up on the autocorrelation and crosscorrelation aspects of your signal; so I take it that these were "proper" and your estimator actually works? I'm still pretty sure that two chains configured identically will exhibit exactly the same sample delay.

Re: [USRP-users] generating square waves on LFTX
Mon, May 11, 2015 1:10 PM
The question is how to have RX ready before TX starts. 2) I always get U at the begining so I also thought that might be the problem, but as Marcus said it shouldn't be a problem for decent computer. 3) It happens sometimes that I don't get any samples into my rx flowgraph which a big problem cause I want to make long extensive BER estimation and don't want something
