Elevation differences between GPS receivers usually come from the elevation reference used, i.e. from the ellipsoid or the geoid, even from the geoid being used.

A couple of questions:
I've just started using  LH 5.0 with my 2  GPSDO units (Thanks Mark!) - a 
Trimble UCCM and a Z3801A.  Oddly, I'm very getting different survey altitude 
values.  The Z3801A is around 81 M, which agrees within 1 or 2 meters with 
Google maps (not a perfect source, but close), but the UCCM is usually around 
48M to 53M depending on which survey I want to believe.  Both receivers are 
locked and both are fed off the same antenna through a splitter.  I admit that 
the antenna placement is very poor - anything below 60 degrees elevation to the 
north is blocked (LH is great for antenna placement analysis).  Anyone have any 
ideas?
A question on LH usage.  When the UCCM is in the position hold mode, what 
happens when a precision survey is run?  Looking at the .lla file shows that 
every position, including the final processed location,  is the same as that 
shown as the position hold location on the main LH screen.  Do you need to take 
the receiver out of the hold mode to run a precision survey?  How?  How is the 
position scatter plot used with a survey?  I usually don't see any positions 
plotted, certainly not when running a precision survey.  I think I saw data 
plotted when I did an internal survey.
Many thanks for any info.  And thanks again to Mark and John for all the work.
Tom
