The Triumph 2 Antenna Is Essentially A GPS Umbrella
The multi antenna array was a way to test theories. It appears the theory also works with zero baseline antenna arrays.
Those 864 channels can easily act as multiple separate independent antennas. The mean of 4 antennas 0.5m apart may not be as good as the mean of 8 antennas 0.0m apart. Javad is emphasizing multiple tracking of the L1 signal, which is the hardest to receive and detect.
When L5 gets turned on with enough satellites let me guess the price, hmmm, how about $500?

Javad Had At Least Three Antennas Tested Last Year
The Triumph 2 is somewhat similar to the JAVGISMORE integrated antenna.

I agree! I can't imagine collecting topo all day with your hands up in the air. You wouldn't be using a 2m rod, but you've got to have the unit at least above your head-right?
Is Javad Serious ? L1/L2 Receiver For $1990.00 ?
I was curious about rather this will track L5 and Galileo too. I would hope it would since the Triumph LS does and the Triumph 2 is being used as the base station. I did not understand why the Triumph 2 chip was not used in this receiver either.

The data sheet shows Galileo, but not L5.
> About the size of three field books stacked.
When I first read this, I grabbed 3 field books from my desk and stacked them up to get a sense of the receiver's size. Pretty small, I thought. But I just now read the data sheet on the Triumph-2, and realize that it's actually much smaller than I first thought: 5.2"x3.3"x2.4". Its about the same height as 3 field books, but only about 70% of the length and width, or barely larger than my Samsung Galaxy SII phone. It's really tiny!
That's true Jim. Maybe more like 3 HP48s. They are very tiny. You could carry 3-4 of them in a pretty small field case I'd think.
> Maybe more like 3 HP48s.
Smaller yet -- more like 2 HP-41s. In fact, just a tad shorter, 0.2" wider, and the same height as 2 HP-41s.
