[FOSS-GPS] Amateur NTRIP casters

[Danny Miller]

Any resource on what these need to do? Can RTKLib get the info?

I can say they like to set up physical stations to do... "things"... I'm 
not sure what... all over.  Once you've got a site, some sort of tower, 
waterproof enclosure, and power to it, that's 95% of the work already 
done.  Just adding a GPS with a RPi to it is very little additional cost.
