Around 27000 feet with a Wild T2000 with scope mounted DI5L. That was considered a modular TS back in the early 1990's when I did the shot. Out in Wy...

As written he is in violation of NC law as I read it (and probably most states that adopted some form of the "model law". So, stop or get law changed ...

@rover83 agree with you, I have been there, when data collector, software and hardware are all different, it can be a real kludge getting anything fix...

@dmyhill re: tilt. I thought any of the units with tilt using an IMU might be calibration free. Without that, I agree probably better off not using it...

@bstrand If you have one watch, you know what time it is, two or more, which one is wrong... One bubble you are level, two or more, which one is wron...

@tom-bushelman $850 and it looks like it a package, so no go with other poles best I can see.

@oldpacer well they say so, so I guess I would say yes until proven otherwise. that one isn't the no crush head and it is aluminum. Leaning toward th...

Won't help recover this instrument, but Leica is now optionally offering a tracking solution for total stations.

@mark-mayer thanks! It was a big investment in 2000 and it has worked very well. Originally I planned on maybe 10 years, but with good maintenance it ...
