I don't think Hawking capable of using simple labratory equipment
to measure the speed of light either so I don't think your attempted
insult works very well. The bigger question is, how about you? Can
you correctly do such an experiment when you refuse to acknowledge
that turning around and facing in the other direction introduces
another rotation into an experiment of imaging through a lens?

Well I think the OP is wrong...
The Anomalous acceleration is rather large about
1 part in 1700. This rules out any new g-field effect
or known GR effect or SR effect. These effects
would certainly appear as anomalies in the orbits
of bodies with high eccentricities.

IMO...
The error appears in the measurement procedure,
specifically in Galilean Relativity, let me explain,
why Gal. Rel. is a useful concept here.

Earth spacecraft (s/c)
K ~~~~~~ k=
c relative to K v relative to K.

The velocity of the radar signal transmitted from
Earth is c. However the velocity of this signal
*compared* to k in the system K is C = c - v.
Please note the word *compared*. This recognizes
the fact that the s/c is receeding from the photon.

Of course, relative to system k the signal has a
velocity c, but we need to change the reference
to k. I think this reference hoping can be highly
confusing, so it's simplest to retain K as the FoR
throughout the calculations. Then C is the speed
of the signal *compared* to k in K's Frame of
Reference.

When a signal is received by k at time t after
transmission from K, two radial quantiites result,

(K's) r = ct and (k's) R = Ct.

In calculating distance, r=ct is *presumed*.
However compared to the s/c where the
signal is absorbed at time t, R=Ct.
Using R the s/c is closer to Earth, and thus
is subject to a greater gravitational deacceleration,
because the magnitude,

A= Gm/R^2 Gm/r^2 = a

That's how Dynamics accounts for the anomaly.

What would really be a true calibration satellite
is the purposed *Pluto Express* employing
several independent means of establishing it's
location.
