Gracias.
I only mentioned the GoogleEarth as an indicator . . .
Setenta y Tres,

Hi,
Just a word of caution here:
Do not trust Google Earth data for any precision work. The mentioned
six feet are probably due to the geographical data, not to the
precission of your GPS unit. If you look for image seams you can
verify the kind of errors involved.
Google Earth is not a professional data source, if you want to use it
por precise work they offer the option to load your own maps and
images for your use , but this is not a free service. The free
service and data is good for showing your favorite pub to your friends.
Regards.

SO, I just connected my third LTE-Lite unit.
By the time the software drivers were installed, and I selected
U-center to the new COMM port, it had a fix. Even with the survey
LED still blinking.
I looked at the GoogleEarth view, and the fix is within six feet of
where the antenna really is. IMPRESSIVE.
BTW, the 10 MHz unit I ran for a couple of days showed a fix on
GoogleEarth within less than a foot of the antenna location.
Most impressive.

All:
After running my 20 MHz LTE-Lite for a week or so, I shut it down
and connected one of the 10 MHz units.
The LEDs appear to be responding (survey still in progress) as per
the quick start guide.
Windows installed a new comm port and driver. (COMM6, with FTDI
driver) The COMM5 port which was the 20 MHz unit is gone.
U-center has selected COMM6 and is autobaud at 38000, but is showing
my nothing except blank screens and a red NO FIX. Have I missed
something? Or will it not report anything until a lock is achieved??
Thanks,
Jim
