>SA is only applied to 1 or 2 satellites at a time: they just don't tell you which ones, and they jump >it about. It's quite probable that you positioned yourself using uncorrupted data. Rob — I am curious about something. My Trimble Scout has a "user range accuracy" display. I think this is obtained from the data message received from the satellites. All but 4 or 5 have a URA of 32 meters but the rest have a URA of either 2 or 4 m. I have assumed that the 2 or 4 m URA's are from satellites with S/A off. Is that correct? — Bill
