1) I do not know if the Integra can accept external RTCM differential corrections.
2) Beacon correction is not RTK, or Onmistar HP. I have worked about 12 miles fron a beacon correction station and could not see any side track error with a spreader from one day to the next. That does not mean that there was none, just that positioning a spreader is a crude way of testing this. I do not believe that you can plant with beacon correction without adjusting the position, but I do believe that (depending on how far you are from a Beacon) it is the best of the free differential systems.
One real advantage is that solar flares, etc do not affect beacon correction much. This is an old thread http://talk.newagtalk.com/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=21187&mid=1453... that is one of the reasons that I believe that the GPS mfg's have made a bad error by not including beacon correction as an option in new gps units.
