Using the ideas of E. I. Gordon we present and farther advancean approach, based on nonstandard analysis, to simultaneousapproximations of locally compact abelian groups and their dualsby (hyper)finite abelian groups, as well as to approximations ofvarious types of Fourier transforms on them by the discrete Fouriertransform. Combining some methods of nonstandard analysis andadditive combinatorics we prove the three Gordon's Conjectureswhich were open since 1991 and are crucial both in the formulationsand proofs of the LCA groups and Fourier transform approximationtheorems
