[App_rpt-users] Voter Question

[Bob Brown - WØNQX]

OK,

I have been trying to follow this thread for a bit now.

The documentation is good. But the question still remains...

1. Can you use ACID or XIPAR (assuming current builds) to do voting
withoutusing an RTCM?

2. IF you can, What are the settings required to do this?
      A. on the RX only site.
      B. on the TX Site.

3. Can the TX site be used as a RX site as well? 1 URI or modded cm108 fob
or is 2 required ?

4. Is GPS absolutely necessary, can we use network timing in place of GPS?

Has anyone done this set up yet?

RTCMs are our of  our price range right now.
