Features may include:

• Base stations using John Deere RTK Radio 900 are very easy to set up for several reasons:

• The John Deere RTK Radio 900 operates in the 902-MHz to 928-MHz frequency range. This range does not require a license from the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC), so the base station can be set up anywhere as long as it does not broadcast more than 4 W of power.

• RTK repeaters are radios that can be used to improve base station signal coverage around obstacles, such as trees or rolling terrain. The purpose of the RTK repeater is to receive the correction signal coming from the base station and then transmit that correction signal.

• More than one repeater can be used with one base station, but the repeater cannot receive signal from each other in a daisy-chain configuration. In order to operate, a repeater must be connected to a 12-V power source.

• Producers have a lower investment cost because the dealer purchases and is responsible for base station upkeep.

• Dealer networks cover more area with the RTK signal, giving many producers access to RTK on all of their grounds.

• RTK network is owned, maintained, and supported by a local, certified John Deere dealer.
