If you do the calculations at the receiver, you get the results for the 
location of the antenna with the signal delayed by the cable delay.  If you 
want to know the time at the receiver, you have to correct for that delay.  
If you want to know the position of the receiver, you have to correct for the 
distance between the antenna and receiver.

Consider recording the signal from an antenna in Seattle, then waiting a week 
and playing it back to a receiver in Boston.
