theory: The signals are weaker and probably there is more multipath. The issue is getting a "fixed solution", resolving the integer ambiguities of phase. This low enough noise in the solution so that the chosen solution can be judged better enough than the others. reality: I find that with open sky, I get "RTK FIX" reliably. In the forest, I get "RTK FLOAT", meaning differential, but without resolving the integer ambiguitites. People seem to think that more expensive stuff does better in forests, as in $20,000 Trimble rather than F9P. I'm not saying they are wrong, but that's not too relevant.... _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
