Resolution of 2 miles looks good to me.
I note what appear to be 3 lines of position. What bodies did you shoot, and at what time interval. As I understand things, a three body shot will most often result in a triangle, sometimes known as a ""cocked hat"", one's fix falling inside the triangle.
Best of luck with your efforts, Stick with them, it's an interesting hobby, if nothing else, and it does work, even today.
