[TangerineSDR] Fwd: another 24hour RM3100 run and comparison with Fredericksburg

[Phil Erickson]

Hi all,

  There appears to be a 10 nT drift in the Z component for the RM3100 that
is not in the Fredericksburg traces.  Is that slow systematic bias
expected?  Maybe things are not calbrated over that time frame quite yet?
