I believe that will be a GPS only system, folks.

That would include GLONASS and be several years newer.
Skeeter, you are really going to like that new R10. A big upgrade from the c.1999 system you have been using.
You are comparing apples to oranges.

More like honeycrisp to jongolds. Granted if your in heavy trees a GNSS system is going to out perform a just GPS system. No argument. But how long does two offsets take? A new state of the art GNSS Trimble system is $30,000+. If you want to get started solo you can certainly survive with a GPS only system considerably cheaper. Assuming your not operating in a jungle somewhere. If you're operating in wheat or hay fields you don't need a GNSS system. I can't see that a double the cost investment is waranteed. Honeycrisp are sure sweeter, but $3 more a lb sweeter?

Even a blind monkey gets lucky sometimes.

Trimble 5700 with internal receive radio w/battery also have auxllary battery hookup cable
Trimble 5800 with internal receive radio w/3 batteries
Trimmark 3 Base Radio and antenna
Trimble TSC2 Data Collector with Survey Controller. spare battery
Asking $15000 this is trade-in value
Everything is in great shape and works great. The TSC2 has the usual occasional problems, nothing a reset won't cure. Everything comes in their own pelican type cases.
wow, why didn't you take the trade-in?

Have you sold this? Any pictures? Also is that radio narrow band?

Haven't sold it yet. Both radios have been narrow banded. Photos are too large to upload. send me an email and I'll send them to you via that way.
Jon, Im going to be in Spearfish South Dakota in a couple of weeks and could sure deliver and show you how to use it.
