I just bought an R8-4 to use as a base with my R10-1 and when setting up the base, Survey Pro's sky view shows that the R8-4 is seeing 25 sats, a mix of GPS, GLONASS, Galileo & Beidou. When I connect my R10-1 rover to the base I only see 10 sats, GPS & GLONASS. I let it sit for a while and it never did see any other constellations. I'm using TRIMTALK 9600 with CMR+ if that makes a difference.

Those other constellations might not be enabled in the rover. Check the settings.

I checked the settings, everything is enabled. I'm able to track all the constellations with the R8-4, so I assume that means it has to be enabled. I'm just not able to use those sats with my R10-1 connected as a rover for some reason.

If I'm not mistaken we had to go through the dealer in order to get those constellations working in our receivers. Pay to play.

I don't think CRM+ is your friend with more than GPS and Glonass. Not a Trimble guy anymore, but I think you will need CRMx or RTCM 3.x with MSM.

I agree with John, CMR+ is only GPS/Glonass. With only 9600 baud rate you may still have issues trying to push all RTCM 3 MSM corrections. CMRx is probably the way to go.

That's promising. I selected CMR+ because the R8 manual I downloaded mentioned that and so I assumed that's all the worked. I'll give CMRx a try here shortly...fingers crossed.

CMRx seems to have fixed the issue, thanks for the help.
