Locus Processor Options
Posted By Nathan deAryan on 3/6/2001 at 10:52 PM

I'd like those software gurus at Ashtec to add these 2 items to the processor:
1.) IF slant height is used, ASSUME (or at least repeat) that the antennae diameter is .10 meter.
(I don't know of any users with a different diameter!)
2.) Have a check box for "auto truncate) that if checked, will automaticly truncate an adjustable amount of time from the beginning, and/or ending of an observation.
The purpose of this would be because I sometimes use Locus on top of a 20' Hixon prism pole, with a Hixon bi-pod. This allows me to shoot points in real tall brush, or beside buildings that are impossible to shoot with a tripod - tribrach - and adapter.
I know the length of the pole when fully extended.

Thank you,

Nathan de Aryan PLS AR
