RTK coverage in Black Torrington.
Black Torrington is 22 km east of our base on the Atlantic Highway at Bude. At that baseline a multi-band receiver should hold about 30 mm horizontally and 37 mm vertically. Inside our practical service radius. Expect a reliable fix with accuracy a little below the ideal, entirely usable for guidance and survey.
The numbers for Black Torrington.
Computed from coordinates. The only thing that will change them is where you actually stand relative to the base.
Bideford, by 2.0 km
The community station at Bideford is closer to Black Torrington than we are, and a shorter baseline is a better baseline. A community station on the public RTK2Go caster. Useful, but with no service guarantee and an unverified absolute position. Use it for guidance; for survey work where the absolute position matters, talk to us.

Corrections are delivered over NTRIP, which needs a data connection at your receiver. Register below and we email the caster address and mountpoint the day it goes live, with notes for whatever receiver you run. If you have no mobile signal in the field, say so: that is what decides whether we add a UHF radio link.
Your receiver decides
AgOpenGPS, CNH and Topcon connect directly. John Deere StarFire needs an RTK activation and usually an external modem. Trimble's free tier will not accept a third-party caster at all. Tell us what you run and we will tell you before you spend anything.
