Has anyone bought all the separate parts that it takes to build a Trimble R6 or R8 and had any luck constructing a functional receiver? Iƒ??m seeing new internal radios, etc. being sold by themselves..Iƒ??ve looked around a bit and havenƒ??t found much info on this. Just curious?ÿ

Thanks

Garth

You can assemble the pieces.?ÿ Question is can you load usable firmware that is authorized to work?

No I can not..I talked to my local Trimble dealer about it and got a similar response. I was just curious. I’m starting a small company and I pride myself on not leaving any stone unturned when it comes to money/investments..I just bought a brand new Spectra Epoch 50 for $3k. I’m only gonna run a single receiver rover for RTK. I could care less about a base for my purposes..Pretty good deal in my opinion. Thanks for the input though.
