Subject: Best WAAS GPS Antenna with Bluetooth


NW IL
I am running a cheapo setup for spraying guidance. Wanting to upgrade GPS receivers.

Current setup:

MachineryGuide APP on my android tablet, with a Dual Electronics GPS receiver with bluetooth($50 on ebay).

It works, but as expected, the gps signal bounces back and forth causing some erratic mapping. The app is actually quite impressive for what it costs. I have $200 in the whole setup.

Whats the best solution for a new GPS receiver running free WAAS signal? I know Novatel has a few units designed for the ag market. Any ideas?

I have to wonder how long it will be before the WAAS receivers obtain enough accuracy to knock the subscription services down a notch. I guess if you need sub inch accuracy then you will paying for it, but some of us don't need that especially for spraying/spreading/tilling.
