The ATS6 radio beacon pointing data: October 1975 - January 1976
Abstract
Pointing data for the ATS6 satellite are presented for use by radio-beacon experimenters to determine and correct the errors introduced in their measurements by small changes in the direction of the satellite. These errors are important for midlatitude measurements of plasmaspheric content and for equatorial measurements of the shape-factor F.
