What: Weight some channels with a longer dwell time.

Why: Spending equal time per channel could be optimized.

How: Wrap it in a for loop, use longer time params for popular channels. Input on said channels welcome

I need to do some more side-by-side comparisons, but here's a 2.5 hour drive comparison in my area running the AtomGPS alongside a DNSDriveBy and a Jhewitt rig. Obviously channels 1, 6, and 11 are the hotspots note the mid-way point peaks on 3 and 9.

Well that’s about as helpful as it gets for a visual! Interesting you didn’t see any on 14, I get a ton of new cameras on that end. Optimization commence!

I should've posted the underlying data -- there are some on 14 they just get squished out.

Also interesting - just did a shorter suburban drive with 3 Atoms and the WiSpy and saw NO hosts on channel 12 or 14. Those appear to be rarer in my area, so perhaps they warrant watching for as less common outliers.
