I recently got my New Holland out in the field, and I’ve noticed that the RTK lock is really slow. Does anyone have a simple tweak that can help speed it up without compromising accuracy? I’d love to swap some tips!
 
I've dealt with this a few times with my New Holland as well. I always check the connection to the base station and clear away any obstructions. And don’t forget to calibrate your reference station properly it can really cut down the lock time
 
I ran into the same problem last month! Start by updating your receiver's firmware—it can really help reduce the lock time. Also, ensure your base station is within a good range to prevent any delays!
 
hi OP, have you checked your RTK radio frequency lately? sometimes a little bit of interference on the channel can slow down the handshake. also, make sure your base station coordinates haven't drifted in the settings.

if the offset is too high, the rover takes forever to resolve the fix
 
Apologies for the late update. I actually resolved the issue by using a similar tip took a look at the radio frequency and the base station coordinates. Now everything’s running much more smoothly. I really appreciate your helpful suggestion
