Subject: [ATM] correction -+
Hello list,
Twice I've asked myself, what value of correction is on the level of a
RMS value of 6, a PV of 1/13, strel .988?
I don't recall any discussion on the matter. When you approach very good
readings, the temptation arises; I can't make it around the barrel again
without loosing good Foucault results, so the good-enough becomes relevant.
This is plate glass, f/6. If I do a set of readings in the morning when
it is warming up, they are different than an evening set when cooling. I
will continue to average readings, so far -1.06, but they have ranged
from -1.065 down to -1.06 (not really an average). If plate glass gives such
wide ranging results, I ask what value of correction weighs in with good
Foucault readings?
Star test will tell in the end. Does anyone have thoughts on this?
Thanks KMR
