   Your test is irrelevant if the conventional light speed delay
assumption implies that anomalous accleration must occur to make the
predicted received radiation from the spacecraft match the observed
radiation.

   This is a lie. You know it and everyone who reads the references you
give and the general statments and lack of specific support that you
say are the evidence, know it.

   No you make calculations based on questionable assumptions without
answering my objections to these assumptions.

  But this is not true because of the projections and the changing
angles of the earths motions wrt the supposed position of the craft.

   I am not talking about this but about the analogy between the
orbital correction for the sidereal vs solar day and the orbital
correction that help explains the 20 minute or whatever difference in
the times of minimal
Doppler shift caused by the earthsite motions.

 2)The fact that Horizons positions of the spacecraft and earthsite
 motions at the time of transmission according to the conventional
light
 speed delay assumption give a more accurate prediction than a
 prediction that assumes the transmission time was a few seconds
earlier
 is due to the fact that the spacecraft positions have been determined
 using the conventional light speed delay assumption.
   But even so the conventional assumptions leads in one hour to a
 trend of increasing disparities between the predicted and actual
 received values that Markwardt claims can be made smaller and smaller
 by linearly extrapolating the transmission earthsite motions to
 fractions of a minute and by assuming an anomalous acceleration. No
 details, only general comments as to method, are given to support
these
 extravagant claims and the evidence suggests that he is not being
 truthful here as in the case that transmissions could not be received
 if the transmitter was off at the receiver site because the earthcraft
 free running transmitter is always unstable unless it is receiving
 radiation from the earth.
   When the spacecraft position is changed it predicts the exact
 received frequency and if adjusments are made for the exact time of
 transmission allowing for the unknown turnaround time at the
 spacecraft, the position and velocity of the spacecraft can be
modified
 so that a sequence of positions is possible that gives predicted
 frequencies that match the observed as shown on my website.
  But the main thing is that you dont have to assume an anomalous
 acceleration.
