Einstein was wiser than you.
He make clocks honest only if they measure light speed to be c.
Problem solved...Einstein idiots still believe him, why don't you?

However the speeds of two signals from differently moving sources can be 
COMPARED without the use of any clocks at all. That forms the basis of my 
variable star research that demonstrates without doubt that light moves 
at c+v.

Thanks for the explanation.  I stand corrected.   So
an experiment generally confirms a multitude of the-
ories.

I should like to know more about them but don't know
how to find them.

Yes. For instance, there is in infinite class of theories which are
experimentally indistinguishable from SR. Among them are Lorentz Ether Theory
(LET), and the Tangherlini transforms. All but SR share these attributes:
  1. they assume an aether that is completely and utterly undetectable
  2. the round-trip speed of light is isotropically c in every inertial
     frame; the one-way velocity can vary with orientation except in the
     unique (and unknowable) aether rest frame; these are for measurements
     using coordinate clocks (see next paragraph for using real clocks)
  3. they are considerably more difficult to work with than SR
  4. they do NOT obey Lorentz invariance
  5. they do NOT know which frame is the "aether frame", and indeed will
     give identical experimental predictions for ANY choice of "aether
     frame"
  6. except for LET (and SR):
     - they synchronize their coordinate clocks in HIGHLY unusual ways
     - slow clock transport does NOT synchronize coordinate clocks
     - it is difficult to get real clocks to behave as coordinate clocks
  7. they differ from SR ONLY in the way their coordinate clocks are
     synchronized
  8. there is no possible way to distinguish among these theories.

For instance, measurements of the one-way speed of light using real clocks
depend on how they are synchronized; for synchronization using slow clock
transport, ALL of these theories predict the result will be isotropically c in
every inertial frame. Ditto for all other measurements using real instruments
(that's what "experimentally indistinguishable" means).

Item #1 has gone out of favor in physics, along with phlogiston, vis viva, and
other unobservable "stuffs". As clock synchronization is purely a human
convention, no physical phenomena can depend on how clocks are synchronized;
hence #7 immediately shows these theories to be experimentally
indistinguishable.

Note that Lorentz invariance has proven to be a very important part of modern
theoretical physics -- it has been ESSENTIAL in finding all new theories since
SR. So #4 makes all of these other theories completely uninteresting.

Here's a start:
     http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/Relativity/SR/experiments.html
     http://relativity.livingreviews.org/
     https://scholar.google.com/

BEWARE: most experiments looking for "aether" are quite old, even ancient. Most
if not all suffer from a lack of modern analysis techniques, in particular:
error analysis. Any experiment that averages data is unlikely to be trustworthy
(averaging can introduce artifacts).

Classic error. You can never measure both incomings same time. The 
Frequency is even a technical impossibility. There are no hardware proper 
counters running that fast. (expected Frequency times >= 2) (femtoHertz

Who says it has to be done "at the same time"?  And who says you can't
split the signal, sending part to a frequency counter and part to a
grating or wavemeter?

Who says "light" refers to visible light rather than to the whole
electromagnetic spectrum?  And who says you can't heterodyne light?

Absolutely true. However there is a catch here, the behavioural at lower 
frequencies is Wavelike, meanwhile true Light at femtoHerts scale gets 
Particlelike pretty fast. You are forced to prove the two cases are 
identical, which are not. Mister Kenseto is talking about proper Light.

Remember that originally, Light was considered being the same as Radio 
waves, not the Radio waves being the same as Light.

An interrupt push all used temporary data and register into the memory 
stack, immediately followed by the execution of the Interrupt. This is 
factually done in the field. Not proverbs and archaic stories. I beg you 
to reconsider.

And paparios is you name, hahaha. Paparios and "Gary" doesn't even know 
what an interrupt does, scientifically. That's why they are immune to 
learning, they never learn anything, much less Relativity and Tnesors. 
Without Tensors you have no right to speak about Relativity.

Unequivocally untrue. An empirical impossibility, since I already proved 
you are a total moron equating Radio Waves to Light Waves, things which 
are illegal in many free liberty 1st world industrialized countries.

You did it, Gary, you did. Let's just forget it, that you did it, and talk 
about something else. As Mr. Kenseto correctly says, also, once you split 
that light through a beam splitter cube, "is not the same light" any more. 
Thus you perform your measurements on an artefact. Something you need to 
learn from, don't you think?

Pure baloney.  As if anyone put their picoscopic lenses on a saw the

BY YOU -- you assume that counting is the only way to measure frequency. It isn't.

That is, the limits on your knowledge and understanding do not apply to others.

Sure you can. Either by splitting or by using two separate instruments pointed 
at the same object. And for astronomical objects, measurements a few minutes 
apart are essentially "the same time".

Nope, not any more. The most practical way to measure the frequency of a visible 
light ray is to heterodyne with a laser of known frequency. Laser frequencies, 
of course, are determined by heterodyne with each other, down to a frequency 
where counting is feasible.

There are lots of papers on this....

A second intentionally invoked classic error. I beg you to reconsider. By 
splitting that Light then performing observation of it, leads to a 
completely other Observation Experiment. Splitting induce Entanglement, 
about which you know more than I know. You just invalidate your own 
Experiment.

Nevertheless, heterodyne and homodyne setups are merely used in 
measurement of particle size and shape (thing you should already know), 
and are not displaying any accurate frequency counting, but rather 
displacement in SPACE. (yes, counting the crests of the Light is 
necessary, since Mr. Kenseto is talking about accurate measurement 
differences ("absolute" vs "measured" frequencies)). Good post, thanks.

The Doppler effect unequivocally shows that the speed of light is not constant:

http://www.einstein-online.info/spotlights/doppler 
 Albert Einstein Institute: "The frequency of a wave-like signal - such as sound or light - depends on the movement of the sender and of the receiver. This is known as the Doppler effect. (...) Here is an animation of the receiver moving towards the source: 

http://www.einstein-online.info/images/spotlights/doppler/doppler_static.gif (stationary receiver) 

http://www.einstein-online.info/images/spotlights/doppler/doppler_detector_blue.gif (moving receiver) 

By observing the two indicator lights, you can see for yourself that, once more, there is a blue-shift - the pulse frequency measured at the receiver is somewhat higher than the frequency with which the pulses are sent out. This time, the distances between subsequent pulses are not affected, but still there is a frequency shift: As the receiver moves towards each pulse, the time until pulse and receiver meet up is shortened. In this particular animation, which has the receiver moving towards the source at one third the speed of the pulses themselves, four pulses are received in the time it takes the source to emit three pulses."

Since "four pulses are received in the time it takes the source to emit three pulses", the speed of the pulses relative to the receiver is greater than their speed relative to the source, in violation of Einstein's relativity.

Remember that is not about the discrepancy in taking light as either wave 
or particle, but that the light is BOTH wave and particle SAME TIME. Even 
a single photon is BOTH a particle and a wave same time. This is weird.
