Thanks. One question though: is this assistet GPS the same as RTK services?
My first answer is "WTF is RTK?"; my answer after consulting Wikipedia is "no, they're separate things".
RTK doesn't sound like it broadcasts any data out but I barely understood what I just read. The Wikipedia coverage on this whole topic seems rather poor quality, I don't think it's just because I'm dumb.
Thanks for looking it up. Mich appreciated :)
