We have some idea of how time is adjusted for GPS. Does anyone know
how and when MSL is adjusted? I mean, 1.

There are several possibilities:

His continent really did sink 1.3m.

That might be something worth investigating.
After all, if it's true, that's not a good trend...

Hi
Same thing is true for kites. I have a couple that you tie off to the hitch on
an SUV that will do the trick. Small simple kites won't lift a lot of weight or
tolerate a lot of added drag.

Hello Charles,
Last September I had some roof work done and I had added 2 each 1-1/2"
vent pipe penetrations just below the ridge.
Now I have a place to add the GPS antenna, either a hockey puck type or
a more sophisticated one.
The hockey puck was added to a length of PVC conduit to penetra

Hi
There are a lot of chimney mount antenna supports. They should get you up 6
feet above the top of the chimney. Simple to install and pretty cheap.
