Setting up a rover receiver on a belt or in a backpack

If you prefer to work free of the weight of the receiver on a pole, you can mount the rover receiver on a belt (SPS Modular only) or carry it in/on a backpack (all receivers). When you wear the receiver on a belt, ensure that the display is always visible so that you can easily check the status of it. If you carry the receiver in a backpack, use an external radio antenna mount to allow for optimal radio signal reception. If you use a low-gain antenna mounted directly on the receiver in a backpack, it may affect the radio signal reception and reduce the likelihood of obtaining an RTK Fixed solution.
