As Bob says, the ublox chipsets from generation 6 onwards are probably the best value as they can be configured to output the raw measurements for precise position/time. There is info on configuring these at OpenStreetMap and rtklibexplorer's wiki and blog respectively and I also added a howto on my blog on doing this (https://adventuresinprecision.space/howtos/precise-gps-positions/) The OpenTTP project has code for capturing the raw data (ublox M8's are supported right now, I am working on adding support for -6T and the main developers are looking at adding support for the new ublox F9 chips) and software for doing the GPS Common View processing. I am just starting to dig into this but need to get the last bit of the ublox6 support working in order to give it some valid data to play with. The other easily available GPS receiver that OpenTTP supports is the Trimble Resolution T which I think has been "end-of-lifed" by Trimble which has pros of being available cheap on ebay and cons of not being able to buy a brand new "official" board unlike with the ublox 8 and 9 receivers. > > Thanks, > > Rodger > Cheers, Tim _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@lists.febo.com To unsubscribe, go to http://lists.febo.com/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts_lists.febo.com and follow the instructions there.
