What’s the reason for traversing with rounds, RTK, and static? Are you over killing your observations? More observations, if they are done correctly, ...

You don’t need to pay yearly to use Trimble software. If you choose, you can buy and never update it.

You know, hazards don’t tell you when the are coming. You’ll forget the type of vest you’re wearing, then you go to locate something in the road or c...

Looking at Oregon DOT’s summary, I don’t like their 5 minute observation time. It’s not static data, so once precision numbers stop decreasing a longe...

TA installation manager will always show the most recent version at the top, but your software warranty might have expired before the recent release c...

That stopped providing safety decades ago. Look at ANSI class II safety vests. I don’t have much need for pockets anymore. I used to carry field book,...

I have a R780. It was a construction product renamed because Trimble had trouble getting parts for the R8S. So it’s heavier than a R12 and uses the ol...

Trimble R10/12 receivers have a 3.5G modem, and 3G service has been discontinued in the USA. So an internal model isn't an option anymore.

I’m using integrated surveying nearly all the time anyways, and it’d be R12i not R12. And with R780 base I’m getting RTK fix every I’m working.

You know VRS/RTN is RTK, right? RTN is more appropriately called network RTK or nRTK

There might be a way to finagle attributes to the code of civil3d points, but I don’t think it natively supports attributes like ORD does. But who is...

You can easily collimate the tracker in the field. It’s astonishing that you don’t know of it and think a repair shop has to do it.

Isn’t the AP20 $10,000? I could see Trimble enabling tilt total station when you’re using R12i integrated surveying which is basically software and c...

It’ll help to not export points from Access just to import into TBC. Import your JOB file into TBC and once you do that and need to do more field work...

R8-2 is an ancient receiver. The latest receivers will blow your mind for productivity. But The R8-2, without a certain firmware upgrade, cannot use ...

You didn't state which version of Access you are using. But for several years, there's a pull down in the height field to enter "bottom notch" or "tru...

@johnh2005 I think this is our issue, rover drops down a hill and range is lost. Sometimes it’s hard to tell if we’ve lost radio or just not enough sa...

All my observations are recorded in my field computer, haven’t used a field book in 4 years except for level notes.

Apple Watch advertising materials when the ultra came out, that it’s more designed for off pavement athletes with dual frequency cost. The ultra ha...

cost. The ultra has L2 so maybe standard watch will get L 2 this or next year no L2 or L2c? why not????
