That’s a mosaic?

If not, you can also use str2str as caster to forward the messages.

I guess rtkbase is not very useful single it uses some raw data to build the correction sentences.🤷

Here is what I built before I switched to rtkbase:

To test (or run) str2str you can use a command like this: str2str -in serial://ttyACM0:115200:8:n:1:off -out ntrips://:PASSWORD@rtk2go.…
