Data collection operational support system, part 2

Calibrated signal-strength data obtained at 10 sites in the Rockies and NASA telemetry data regarding the signal levels in the ATS 6 spacecraft are presented along with methodology to use the data to compute the carrier-to-noise rations and signal-to-noise rations at each of the calibrated sites. The data and methodology are also used to estimate the median values of these quantities for sites in the Rockies, Alaska, and Appalachia. Results are discussed.
