Are you unlocked to receive RTK correction? If so, you could check DigiFarm. It works with 3000 and 6000. Looks like you are just in their coverage area.

Subscription is $900/yr. You would need a Beacon that is a onetime $650. You can just unplug it like a data stick to move to other equipment or you could easily sell it if you did put up your own base.

Only other thing you would need is a cell phone with a data plan. Most phones have free data and a free app converts phone to a modem

DigiFarm would be a great way to get into RTK without the expense of putting up your own base. $4400 plus an iPad with data service would get you running on one of your 3000 receivers. After that it’s $900 a year for subscription.

Putting up a tower would cost you a minimum $8600 plus the radio equipment and then you have to maintain/insure it in the event of a storm or other quirky thing. Unless you are already pretty much set up I’d recommend anyone go DigiFarm or jump on a dealer network. Especially with a maximum of 3 rovers. If you had 10, that’s a different story and more easily justified.
