  • Configuration 1 - Standard Atmospheric (and Geodetic) site. All components are typically in the same building, but the GPS antenna may be mounted on a seperate monument to improve stability and/or sky visibility.


  • Configuration 2 - Atmospheric AND Geodetic site, same as Configuration 1, except using an IGS chokering antenna, SCIGN antenna mount, and a SCIGN Tall radome. These are supported on a LIMITED basis. Contact Bjorn Johns (bjornunavco.org) at UNAVCO for more information.


  • Configuration 3 - Like Configuration 1, except with a radio modem link for the serial connection between the GPS receiver and the computer. In this configuration, only one serial link is used.


  • Configuration 4 - Like Configuration 2, except with a radio modem link for the serial connection between the GPS receiver and the computer. In this configuration, only one serial link is used.
