This is an Outback Baseline HD RTK base station and rover to be used with an Outback GPS system. I had previously used it with an Outback S3 for planting without markers. The system could use a little TLC though. This year during planting season the rover lost connectivity with the base station due to a short in the circuit board. I had the system repaired, but in the interim I upgraded to a newer model so am selling this. I have tested the system now that the rover is repaired and it established an RTK signal on the GPS system as shown in the pictures. However, these items also need attention:

1) The base station battery was no good, so I have completely removed it from the base station to reduce weight for shipping. The battery is easy to replace, but you would also need to get a 12v charger if you wanted to use the battery.
2) The external battery cable was cobbled together from standard electrical connections as you can see in the pictures. It works fine but you might want to get a standard cable.
3) The bracket to attach the antenna to the base station is missing one of the screws as you can see in the picture.
4) The rover cable itself appears to have a short in it. When I was testing it out the system, the power to the rover would cut out if I moved the cable just right. It would probably work fine if you had the cable secured, but another thing that could probably be replaced.

So overall it is a good system, it could just use a little attention. I would fix these things myself, but don't want to invest money in it just to turn around and sell it. I'm also happy to invest some time and money into it, but would likely ask a higher price if you want me to fix anything like replace the battery. As is, here's an opportunity to get a good system for a good price. I will cover shipping costs in the continental US for the price listed. Let me know if there are any questions.
