How about pinching an idea from the early radar and missile technologies
- Conical Scanning. Basically you offset the detector of feed antenna
from the point of focus and then rotate it. If the signal is off centre
you get sinusoidal modulation of the signal. The phase of the modulation
tells the
Hi all:
Robert's pinching an idea from the early - - brings to mind what we did
in the early days of video/ TV. Hope this inspires some useful ideas.
To measure spot size on CRT, a small slit was placed against the TV or
oscilloscope screen and a photo sensor measured the light intensity

Accuracy still won't be much better than1% of the solar diameter or
about 1 second of time nowhere near the o.1 sec or better hoped for.

Bruce,
Can you show us how to derive the accuracy number?
I would have guessed that with fractional degree Al-El
