GT-RK1
System signal: GPS L1(1575MHz);
This is single point solution, covers 5-20 meters at radius(by increasing the amplifier
according to methods and under field conditions, building height and other certain
conditions reach a radius of 20 meters).
Note: Single point means one antenna be used to transmitting GPS signal.
