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.

Just because I'm paranoid, doesn't mean they aren't out to get me.

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.
