Thread: About 37xx converted to 34xx satellites reception accuracy

Hi Kanupus,
Which software you has used to generate comparative charts and in what situation? The two gps were connected to the computer and management software at the same time?
tks

If you do a drive test, why don't you register a log?
There exist diagnostic log, start logging in gpx format and then you would be able to analyze real precision of GPS.

I agree that this procedure is very important to consider, as well indicated by the X-trail, but for it to be really reliable a reference is necessary, i.e, another GPS side by side, preferably a 3790 original.
