Just curious how the GTS 4 differs from the 4B?

Assuming you are asking about a Topcon GTS-4B, an instrument model from around 1991 -

Here is an image scanned from the original manual.?ÿ Left-click the image and it should expand to legible size.

The Topcon GTS-4B was a lower-spec version of the first-introduced GTS-4; a bit shorter range rating and lower angular resolution/accuracy.?ÿ That provided a model that could be sold at a lower price point.

If you need the manual, send me a message via this forum and we can work out something.

I remember Mark Cyr.... "YELLOW?!??! It's a girl's Gun!!!"

Thanks Glenn and offer on the spec. but I don't need. Wow just the opposite of what i was thinking.?ÿ Figured the B meant it was the 4 with something extra.?ÿ Lol.?ÿ I have the manual for the Topcon GTS 4 and It shows that exact page you have posted, section 20, except does not show that comparison, only shows the 4 spec.
