Here is my logic:
Its a real bad place to get a shot. After sitting on it for 1 minute, I get one click. One epoch. I stay there for another 30 minutes. It's got 12 buckets. And, finally it gets one click that agrees with that click at one minute. Now, that's pretty confident that it's right. At 35 minutes, and at one more click, and 18 buckets. So, we now have 3 in agreement, over 35 minutes. Now, I save it. Point 120. Start second observation. In 3 minutes, it has 3 clicks, and dist to last is 0.05'.
So, I now know that 120, and 121 are fundamentally in agreement. I let it sit for 15 more minutes. Where it finally get to phase 2, and then gets to 120 clicks, at the 20 minute mark. I save it, skipping phase 3, because point 120 tells us it's the right point. 3rd observation, and in 10 minutes, it's all the way to 120 epochs. Now I've got 3 observations, all within a tenth, and I've got it.
Anyway, I'm ALWAYS going to be pushing this equipment. As far as it will go. Another thing, is RTPK. At a certain point, it takes it a whole minute to process. You never know if it is in agreement, because it immediately begins next RTPK. It needs a delay between RTPK, with a way to tell how many RTPK observations it's made, and how many were in agreement with each other. Like if RTPK 1, RTPK 3, and RTPK 10 are all 3 in agreement, (by some tolerance amount) I'd like to store that point. The average of those 3. And to know their shot spread.
I know I'm rambling. But my t3 is not here yet....
