Observed minus calculated (O-C) residuals vs. seconds of day and satellite elevation to four different rocket bodies: a SL-14 R/B, b ARIANE 40+ R/B, c SL-14 R/B, d H-2A R/B. The panel in the lower left of each plot shows a radar plot of the full pass over Graz SLR station (red) and the displayed segment (green). The center of the radar plot corresponds to 90° elevation, upwards direction to 0° azimuth or Northern direction.
