Checking the Positional Invariance of Planck's Consant Using GPS

Given that h is very small (1e-15, 1e-34 or 1e-27 depending on units), a limit of.007 seems rather large.

Considering NIST in Washington, NRC in Ottawa, NPL in London, and METAS in Berne (all national metrology labs) have directly measured h to within 300 parts in a billion (1E9), this is an unusual report. Those results are within a relative limit of 0.0000003.

Planck's constant cannot be measured with only a GPS or atomic clock, so this is at best some comparative result.
