taks Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 not a book but... Geolocationi of Frequency-Hopping Transmitters via Satellite i'm trying (halfheartedly) to assess the impact of local oscillator phase noise on the accuracy of a geo-locator. unfortunately, most of the literature is wrt satellites as individual elements in the calculation, and i am interested in individual elements in a local array. even at that, the direct impact is not explicitly stated, and i will likely have to convert the resulting mixer noise into some average that can be added into the total noise. i know, i'm a geek for a living. i would not otherwise read, it puts me to sleep. taks comrade taks... just because.

OLD SKOOL WHEELMAN Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Read? Pffft. Reading is for literate people. Anyhoo, I recently read Fahrenheit 451 for the very fourth time(can I get some props in the fizzorum?), and right now I'm trying to get into Nostromo, but it's either the writing style of the fact that I just got a life that's keeping me from engorging myself within it, like a flowered daisy that yearns for the moon...ahem...

Azure79 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I'm finishing up on the Victome de Bragelonne by Dumas. It's a continuation of the Three Muskeeters story although the story shifts more to Athos' adopted son. The Musketeers and D'Artagnan still appear though! I'll probably be reading that then Louise de Vallerie(I think that's the title) and then The Man in the Iron Mask. I'm starting to like the French now. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azure79 Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 Shadow of the Giant, finally. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I Am on shadow of the Hegemon <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I love the Ender Series of books. I admit I'm more partial to Bean and Petra. Very interesting characters those two. My favorite character is Peter though. He reminds me of CaoCao, a very famous ruler of China after the collapse of the Han Dynasty. He was called the 'infamous hero' or 'villanious hero' and took great steps to bring order in a turbulent age, sometimes using methods that might be perceived as excessive. I left my books at home when I moved out with strict instructions not to throw them out or give them away. My mother usually ignores me though, so I'm scared. Too bad the Pacific Ocean is separating us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azure79 Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 I don't think there will be a sequel, though I've read that part called Buttercup's Baby. Come on it was good! What happens to Fezzik!?

Sereyna Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 Just finished the first Stephen Donaldson's Thomas Covenant book, and I'm not quite sure what I think of it. It was at least ok. Now reading Robert Ludlums Apocolypse Watch, as well as The Battle 100 . Cant remember who it is by-- some retired General I believe. I'm enjoying the latter more so far. As capable of inconvenience, and of some damage and debt to those that would act against my interests, I cannot f*^ng argue with dangerous.
