Started from a crowdfunding site several years ago. Quite reasonable for an RTK system but needs some tinkering.

Piksi GPS

I was thinking to use this as part of a home made tidal gauge system. Anyone already bought this? How was it?

Before purchasing one of those, you might want to take a look at this one.

I don't understand why that would be a problem.

One of many problems. Antenna design and modeling, hardware integration, and data collector support are a few that come to mind. It's an interesting project, but not of much practical use for surveying.
