Who'd like to go compare a R10 to a Javad?

I'm curious, just to see them run in similar environment.

If you have one, and are curious, let's go do it.

Nate I would love too!

Well, you are in St Louis, from your profile.
I've been there a number of times.

Meet part way?

Poplar Bluff, MO? We have an office there and I work down there quite often. Or Pocahontas, AR?

Be sure to eat a Rancho Bravo Mexican Restaurant north of the river on the east side of Rock n Road Hwy. 67. Some of the best Mexican food I've ever had.

I'd like to know how they do with public RTK network, specifically under partial tree canopy. I believe Missouri's DOT has one.

Rule of thumb is that they'll never do as well as with a local base. Basically if your public network had Net R9s broadcasting on CMRx and you're using an R10 you'd be good to go. But I think that is pretty rare still.

Davidsonville Historic State Park?

Louisiana Purchase State Park?

For what I do RTK is plenty accurate and have no need for base/rover. If I need precision, I break out the robot. You just can't beat the efficiency of grabbing a rover and go!

A couple more ideas for "THE TEST SITE":

Can I bring my Viva GNSS GS 12?

What we are looking for in a site, is a good open place for the base stations. (We are not testing the base stations ability to work in the woods!)

A good pine, and a good oak forest, for some test pegs.

Any surveyor who can suggest a site, in the Pocahontas area, will work for me.

I don't know suitability of sites up there. So, IF anybody can chime in, it would be great.

We can make something work. But, having an ideal site picked is better.
I am 4 hrs from Pocahontas.

Nate

Dan, both of those are too far west. We want it to be on the route, between Little Rock, and Poplar Bluff.
Bald Knob Refuge (Near Searcy AR) has photos with it. I think it would work. There's alot of stuff around Poplar Bluff.
I'm open to suggestions.
N

Radar, bring your viva.
We want to test in such a way, as to really see.

Nate,
This State Park is just south of Pocahontas...look at the photos...open sky for base and plenty trees.

I'd be interested, Nate!

This looks like a nice place. We can pitch a tent too. Would Nov. 11th work as a possibility?

its about 4 hrs from my house too.

Davidsonville Historic State Park looks like it will do nicely.

I want to pick 2 dates, 2 wks apart. IF the first one gets rained out, then we use the second one.

Here is what is there:

Is this the kind of place you would like?

I'm a surveyor, so I am comfortable most anywhere... Except at the dentist or doctors office!
