We discussed this a little while back. I proposed a three-cornered hat 
using two receivers and one counter... as the Thunderbolts has a builtin 
TIC to GPS which can be logged. We also discussed just running a single 
Thunderbolt in holdover. Others had already tried that approach. Bruce 
and I discussed to some degree the effect of steering on the result.

Hmm... I have not even "repaired" (in the sense, that they are broken 
until opened and "repaired", i.e. just looking under the hood for sake 
of curiosity). any of mine...

Cheers,
