[GPS_Standard] GPS_Standard Digest, Vol 29, Issue 1

[Dick Moore]

These questions will provoke a flood of info and opinion. Having three  
or four high elevation SVs will produce fine results which are limited  
primarily by receiver noise and and jitter, and by receiver system  
resolution. More than SVs that, especially if at low elevations, will  
not improve results. These are my opinions; I do not state them as  
facts.
