Hi All,
Time, GPS and movement plays a big part in most discussions. Each day
brings something new and fantastic in the world of science, it just
makes you think where it will take us.

The other answer is that DSP was not really available when the original

Well,

The issue would be just how well you know the delays. Multi path even in a
ground wave environment sets some fairly nasty limits on this.

Hi Gerald:
It turns out the the long term drift spec of a gyro depends (using a
large power law, far from linear) on it's volume. See:
http://www.prc68.com/I/Sensors.shtml#Gyroscopic
I expect that one that can fit into the head of a pin will drift much
more than 1000 deg/hour.
Have Fun,

Hi Jim:
I'm in Ukiah, Calif. where one of the Lattitude observatories is

the Longitude and the five Lattitude observatories (all at 39 degrees 08
minutes North Latitude) were operational for almost a century. They

Hi Brooke,
Looks like the physorg paper is talking about an optical rate gyro.
Don't think the drift rate matters, since position is not measured.
Yes, your reference gives bad numbers for a fiber optic rate gyro,
but the physorg paper claims a device that works.
Something is out of joint.
A main use for Rate Gyros is in stabilizing missiles in yaw, pitch and
sometimes roll.

Hi Bill:
I thought the key idea was that the long term drift rate of a gyro is
independent of the mechanism.
The modern MEMS gyros have a very poor long term drift and so are only
suitable for use over short time spans.
Have Fun,

The GOES xponder if on was still good. Just no sig.
Boy I think it was millisecond range as I recall. Believe it was truly a

Though I think you could get pretty good accuracy over long periods of time.
They may have used it to xmit freq info. I used it only for time. Beat

The coil allowed an ok match, but an antenna that is a tiny fraction of a

Some on this list mentioned having had less-than-optimal performance with their

Regardless of isolated anecdotal data on one oscillator, it
is probably not advisable to change the set point. The majority
of 10811 crystals do NOT have a turnover, only a region of
low tempco around 82 degrees.
Instead of that, change the circuit to B-mode and optimize
