   The real measurement result was 43082.045269065 s.   
      
   See:   
   https://paulba.no/paper/Initial_results_of_GPS_satellite_1977.pdf   
      
   In the test of the first GPS satellite in 1977 the clock in the   
   satellite  was initially not adjusted down.   
      
   The rate of the clock in the satellite was during  6 days measured   
   to be (1 + 4.425e-10) faster than the clock on the ground.   
   See fig. 20.   
      
   That's 19.064 μs more per orbit than the clock on the ground.   
   This is slightly less than the 19.235 μs predicted by GR,   
   but it is as can be expected by the precision of the atomic clock   
   in the satellite, which was in the order of 1e-12.
