[QUOTE="Pheasant Surprise, post: 6123502, member: 1103"] Sort of ;) The Emlid Reach RS units are basically GNSS (or simply commonly called GPS) receivers. Nothing more, nothing less. You could certainly fit one to a tractor roof and folks have done that, however it’s not going to do anything without either a screen or a steering controller and autosteer setup if it’s steering you’re after. To get RTK levels of accuracy the unit acting as a ‘rover’ in RTK language also needs a correction signal either from another unit acting as a ‘base’ using the internal radio or via another third party source. This could be via the inbuilt 3.5G modem with SIM card connecting to a mobile network / NTRIP or you could attach an external UHF radio to the receiver and connect to a third party RTK provider or neighbours RTK base. If you need a brief explanation of the basis of technology there is a summary on the Emlid website [URL='https://store.emlid.com/rtk-ppk-and-ntrip/']here[/URL]. Alternatively I’m quite happy to write a little primer on here, but without wanting to teach granny how to suck eggs you’ll need to let me know what it is you want to know. [/QUOTE]
