A set of experiments in the use of Differential Very Long Baseline Interferometry for spacecraft navigation have been completed. Data using both Voyager spacecraft and a single quasar were acquired during the Jupiter encounter time period. The data were processed and analyzed in order to assess the navigation accuracy of Differential Very Long Baseline Interferometry. The paper focuses on the data reduction and techniques for assessing data quality and consistency.
