Effects of Instrumentation Recorder time Base Error on Spectral Purity
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 13-15, 1970 / International Hotel, Los Angeles, CaliforniaExperimental data is presented to show how carrier amplitude of a recorded signal is affected by Time Base Error. Time Base Error effects on the sideband structure of a recorded signal are also shown for different amounts of Time Base Error and at several frequencies. The effect of capstan servo adjustment on spectral purity demonstrates the need for new methods of performance evaluation to achieve optimum performance when recording spectrum information. The data presented shows that skew (ITDE) has little effect on spectral purity for analysis bandwidths of 50 Hz or greater.International Foundation for TelemeteringProceedings from the International Telemetering Conference are made available by the International Foundation for Telemetering and the University of Arizona Libraries.

Decentralisation and educational achievement in Germany and the UK
We examine decentralisation in school-based education, with particular reference to two countries, Germany and the UK. In section 2 we explore the notions of devolution and decentralisation. We examine different types of decentralisation and some of the ideas with which it is associated including, in education, improving educational standards. In section 3 we consider the decentralisation of education in Germany and the UK. We examine the decentralisation of political authority, policies pursued at national and subnational levels, and the delegation of responsibilities to school level. We then compare achievement levels in the two case study countries and explore whether particular policies, pursued at subnational levels, might be associated with differing levels of attainment. We argue that decentralisation in the field of education is multifaceted and complex, with different types of decentralisation coexisting. Our analysis suggests that certain policies, pursued as a result of decentralisation, may be associated with different educational outcomes, but it is not possible to draw definitive conclusions particularly in light of the differing political, policy, and socioeconomic contexts
