Fig. 3. NavSat equipment at each <strong>AIDJEX</strong> camp. Two singlechannel<br />

receivers share a quartz crystal frequency standard,<br />

antennas separated by about 100 m. The receiver acquisition<br />

circuits are controlled by a computer that also computes<br />

NavSat positions and logs environmental data as well as raw<br />

and processed NavSat data on magnetic tape.<br />

Fig. 4. A good receiver control procedure<br />

avoids a pass (A) that interferes<br />

with another pass (B) during<br />

3<br />

their critical intervals (solid 2<br />

lines); directs the search frequency<br />

$<br />

to a calculated value to acquire a 0<br />

pass (c) at a certain time; and w<br />

a<br />

break the receiver from a pass (D)<br />

and the end <strong>of</strong> its critical interval<br />

so that another pass (E) can be<br />
