Hi Tom,
I think you need to improve your map reading skills. I do believe you
meant Oceanside, Ca. Also, both Oceanside and Mt. Polomar are in San
Diego County, the furthest county south along the California coast.
Looking for more pictures and a longer story. Keep up the good work.
If knew you were going to be in my area I would have like to have had a
lunch meeting. Well next time possibly.
Good luck,
Bill....WB6BNQ

Check out History Channel tonight (Friday, August 17) for a new series called "In Search
Of" hosted by Zachary Quinto. Episode 5 is titled "Time Travel".
There's a chance this episode will include some bits with my car & cesium
clocks. Earlier this year I was invited by the producers to perform a gravitational
time dilation experiment like the ones I did in 2016 for a Stephen Hawking TV show
and the family clock trip up Mt Rainier in 2005.
This time I selected Mt Palomar, CA which is conveniently located in the
greater LA area. You likely know of Palomar because of the famous 200 inch Hale
telescope up at the ~5500 foot summit. Our base was a beachfront hotel in
Seaside, CA. The elevation difference was about 1.6 km and the clocks were
separated for about 24 hr so 15 ns of time dilation is expected.
Over two days they certainly took lots of footage of the clocks, the car, and
some conversations with me. I have no idea how many seconds of actual screen
time that might result in. None of it was scripted or rehearsed so I hope I
didn't do or say anything too stupid on camera. I'll have more info by tomorrow
and update the web page:
