RTK coverage in Launceston.
Launceston is 25 km south-east of our base on the Atlantic Highway at Bude. At that baseline a multi-band receiver should hold about 33 mm horizontally and 40 mm vertically. Inside our practical service radius. Expect a reliable fix with accuracy a little below the ideal, entirely usable for guidance and survey.

Commissioning autumn 2026
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.
