Up and running now! Just 3 stations in N Ireland and 12 in all of Ireland. Small steps but at least that’s south down covered
Hopefully there'll be another sometime this summer right between you and farm theory, bought a tractor unlocked to rtk and see no point in subscribing to centrepoint/rangepoint or whateverView attachment 1171311

Great job, certain smugness sticking your finger up to cooperate greed and helping out the little man!Hopefully there'll be another sometime this summer right between you and farm theory, bought a tractor unlocked to rtk and see no point in subscribing to centrepoint/rangepoint or whatever
I paid mine yesterday. Seems like a nice little earnerGreat job, certain smugness sticking your finger up to cooperate greed and helping out the little man!

Technically 12 stations strategically placed would give very good coverage to the countryLooks like I'll have to set my own up if I ever get around to putting my system together. I have various bits but not everything. I'm up near the top and probably to far from donegal for those to be useful
I've hooked onto a station 100km away and it was absolutely fine for mowingHow far are people getting reliable/accurate signal though?

And hopefully another soon too.Hopefully there'll be another sometime this summer right between you and farm theory, bought a tractor unlocked to rtk and see no point in subscribing to centrepoint/rangepoint or whatever
Carsehall have one as well I believe, was showing a few months ago with Farm Theory in the name, guessing he set it up for them?Looks like I'll have to set my own up if I ever get around to putting my system together.

Miniscule amount of data for rtk, not worth turning it off I'd say. Mine runs 24x7x365And hopefully another soon too.

There is one close to me, but seems to get switched off during winter, anybody else do this? saves a few quid on the wifi maybe.
I’ve noticed a few dropping off, main reason I put mine up, both closest to me weren’t visible when I was putting fert on last time.And hopefully another soon too.

Watch the incoming messages in agio, you might be able to see if there's any dropout. Phone signal strength isn't always a reliable indicator that you're actually receiving anything.i went for a drive in car yesterday evening 50mile trip. Said I would test out AgOpenGps in RTK mode as i went as i have travelled the road before with Agopen in RTK mode running. thus i had the route recorded. travelling at 80-100km/hr.
RTK seemed quite accurate (<1ft) with the base station sending the correction data 30-40miles away, however i spent 5mins in Float and then 1min in RTK or thereabouts was my observation. so over my 1hr 15min drive, i spent far more time in float than RTK. Any ideas.
In my previous trip on the same route spent 90+% of the time in RTK. No weak phone signals either along the route.
You can check your own, by driving an AB line, then come back hours later and drive the same line in the same direction.Is there a way of checking how accurate you’ve the base station set up? Just to make sure everything has been done correctly?
I would have said to find another base station and try that see how much the lines are different, using your own again doesn't really show a lotYou can check your own, by driving an AB line, then come back hours later and drive the same line in the same direction.
I've tried a couple of VRS RTK commercial services and two of them differed by 10cm driving the same AB line.

Maybe it's to stop the neighbours, contractor in opposition type thing.Miniscule amount of data for rtk, not worth turning it off I'd say. Mine runs 24x7x365
