We are aware that there are hidden traps, and we try to diversify and cross-correlare experiments of different nature. The progress is very slow because eclipses are rare events at any given location, but they occur twice a year on the planet, and I just thought to take advantage of satellites to possibly speed-up the work. I don't believe the idea is completely new. What is new, I think, is looking for sudden jumps, which may have been filtered out by other workers. The thermal shock at crossing the shadow is a severe issue, but some instruments detected effects before and after the optical eclipse and on the anti-eclipse path (the other side of the planet). There is a non-official position of NASA on this, read MSG#26 at http://xoomer.virgilio.it/iovane/mails.htm (....We have a number of anomalies recorded on different....). Not sure my idea is good, but what to do waiting for the next eclipse here? Should it be within my reach, I would be pleased to try looking at sats. Or, maybe, time-nuts who happen to be in the eclipse path in the future with their cesium clocks, could help. Or, further, time-nuts may have suggestions such as I'm getting from you. In the future, in case, I will ask you what you mean by "good" L1/l2 receiver.
