Explain that you plan to change it in the mail you will send to caster administrator.
Hello, im in the process of setting up a ntrip base station using a f9p and raspberry pi. I plan on setting up a couple tractors using aog. However i already currently have a outback guidance system with steering wheel. I was wondering if it would possible and not to overly complicated to send the outback gps corrections from my base station and continue to use the outback system without paying a subscription?
Thanks in advance
This thread describes how to build an RTK base station and this base station can be used with any RTK capable rover (via NTRIP or radio, radio obviously needing some additional HW).
There are hundreds if not thousands of different rovers, at least tens from outback I assume. I’d prefer brand specific rover discussions on some other thread to keep this one easy enough to follow for the original purpose: build an RTK base.

I wanted to install the new one RTKBase 2.4.0 for Easy installation
But this is what I got after sudo ./install.sh --all
“wrong option, please choose release, repo, url or bundled”
New 2.4.0 version should it be installed differently?
Best regards !
sudo ./install.sh --all release
I’ve updated the readme.

Ok, fair enough, just wondering if you know if there is already an existing suitable thread to poise my questions about outback? Thanks.
Ok so lets say you set up your antenna in not a great location but already have set up a mount point and corrections with rtk2go. Is it just a matter of moving your antenna and changing the lat. Long. And height to the new position or do you have to do other things to prevent from getting banned from rtk2go?
Thanks
Hy, Stefal, I noticed a small mistake I think. In /status no satelite strong info grafic, Latitude Longitude and Height changes every second, but do not see the strength of the satellites. I tried it in another web browser as well.
But I noticed when I go into the /settings and Main service OFF and ON after back /status move 2second grafic and doesn’t move. Laitude and Longitude changing numbers in 1 second.
Thanks for your report. Is this an update or a new installation ?
Please don’t try to update or install this new release right now. !!!

Ok, I found my mistake… a strange one.
@bumabacha if you want to fix this without reinstalling RTKBase,
- stop rtkbase_web
sudo systemctl stop rtkbase_web - go to rtkbase/web_app
cd ~/rtkbase/web_app - delete rtkcontroller
rm RtkController.py - get the new one
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Stefal/rtkbase/master/web_app/RtkController.py -O RtkController.py - restart the web server
sudo systemctl start rtkbase_web

Hi guys i have a question i have a base station how may rovers can i have with 1 base stattion
I don’t know the answer to your question, I don’t think anyone can predict the answer. As many as the server can handle, thousands should be no problem.
If you were to ask “is it possible to have up to 50 rovers connected to a single base?” then the answer is yes, no problem.
You’re using radio? Isn’t that like asking how many listeners a radio station can broadcast to? The limit is really only line of sight. could have thousands. The signal radiates in all directions from your base station antenna.
Sure it’s technically true that a radio receiver does attenuate the signal in the vicinity of its aerial (shadow). But practically it makes no difference to other radio receivers unless they were very close.

I am trying to optimise NTRIP traffic, am only using GPS+GAL MSM7 for the caster now. The caster however will show the mountpoint in its homepage table as having GPS+GLO+GAL+BDS+QZS. It is probably showing all it receives from the F9P. When offering more than one stream with different message configurations it would be nice to announce the correct info about the stream, is there a way to achieve this?
