Thanks for this reference.. I had seen some of the papers before, but 
this collects them all handy in one place.

The paper by Sydnor is quite handy, because it's basically the same way 
we do things still  (well, we don't punch the Doppler estimate on paper 
tape, we've moved a tiny bit forward. And, most, but not all, of our 
equipment is calibrated in Hz as opposed to cps)..
