Dear Bruce, > But I'm interested, and hope others will take part. Unfortunately, so far I got only one reply. Apparently there is little interest to this topic. But nevertheless I am preparing to post ample data on my SNO (and possibly Bill's Astra, if he does not object). Fortunately we had almost perfect weather last several weeks and we could do some experiments with Bill. The purpose was to compare SNO with Astra, and also test whether my systematic errors are due to my lack of experience or to SNO defects. > always felt that making contact by always turning the adjusting knob the same > way was a waste of effort. Russian books and manuals always pay a lot of attention to backlash. Alex.
