differential signal

[bravheart]

Not had one for over a week now, anyone else locally missing the differential satellite?

Getting Egnos here Friday and Saturday

Thanks T C, must have a problem with the receiver then.

 

[croppers]

No problems here either, sorry

Could be useful to know which receiver it is. I guess all current models can switch between two or more EGNOS satellites but the list of received satellites is often configured manually. Quite a while since EGNOS satellites were reallocated but there have been a lot of of service interruptions and it would be important that the receiver is configured for the correct EGNOS satellites to enable correction signal at least from one source when another one is interrupted.

Does the receiver see GPS satellites as well as in the past?

Thanks croppers seems Kelsae's covered then.

Northern
its one of these

Not had it that long and no idea what most of it means but used to pick up around 8 satellites on a grade 2 signal, its now picking up 16+ satellites on a grade 1 signal.

Brave hart, have you spoken to your dealer???

Brave hart, have you spoken to your dealer???

Sent a text today after the others were getting signals.

LH Agro supplied? If so pm me your details for a solution ASAP

I see the same with a novatel antenna. 18 uncorrected or 9 to 11 corrected. I think the egnos base station does not see as many common satellites, when egnos is lost then all satellites come to view. Ran with no diff last year as it seemed to drop out a bit and cause a jump.

 

[Robt]

You ran with no diff???? That's raw gps... Approx 1.5m accuracy.... Egnos is not a base station. The reason it drops to 9-10 sats when it logs on to,egnos is despite rumours on here. Egnos does not support Glonass

 

[Northern farmer]

Seems to be working as it should (as any EGNOS capable receiver would, like Robt says).

 

[bravheart]

Thanks for all replies and pm's
should know better than fiddle with somethin that aint broke.

Ran the auto connect and logged it back into egnos today
Nothing wrong with the hardware, just the operator

 

[Robt]

Running on x20 by sound of it!

 

[bravheart]

yes

now all I need is a speed signal for the spreader, the tractor one stopped so started fiddling
