@jt50 Electronics never appreciate in value, T3/2/1 never wear out.
@jim-frame I have 3 geodetic antennae yhat came with the receivers. At the time I think they were $5K replacement cost to buy 1.
@mightymoe in ‘88 or ‘89, we bought Trimble: 2 for $100. Not 4 months later the salesman contacted us and offered another 1 for $15. Shor...
@loyal fifty large.
@mightymoe my mistake $50K ea
The first GPS receivers I used cost $50 ea. 1989. leaving one unattended was unthinkable. And that was L1 static, and 5-6 hr work window.?ÿ
@jt50 horizontal should be just as obvious. Height is just one of three returned values. Even in ECEF
I have Z12s, and the date is wrong. (I don??t know if PM2 data is similar) However, GNSS (latest v. from the ftp, and Win10) will take the B files a...
Just process the data as kinematic in PPP. Should be straight obvious, unless it spent 99% of the time akimbo.?ÿ
@john-nolton that's s nice doc. I know I love HP calculators and 3805A EDM.
@glenn-borkenhagen i came across that HP doc just recently. It’s a nice doc for HP lovers.
My ??total station?: T2 snd subtense bar. What more could you ask for? I did just get an HP 3805A.?ÿ
@freefallin1309 internship!
@one-cup-o-joe my favorite is UK Royal Engineers 1925.
Simple older total station is $500, (no data collector usually).?ÿA couple of mirrors and tribrachs, $100 ea, 3 tripods $100 ea. Traverse around a par...
@mightymoe my favorite is two short length, long radius curves, like 5000 and 5500 r, 100 ft length, separated by a 1 ft tangent. Good CAD gone bad....
Be thankful it??s not ??7699.523 R, 0-00-58 Delta?
@nate-the-surveyor Traversing 1200 ft from a pub disc in SPC is not exotic. Not in the 21st c. He had a brain fart.
@whh114 he didn??t make a huge mistake. He accidentally used geodetic azimuth. He found that out, used the proper grid az and the pub NAD83 position...
