MBX-4

Use the MBX-4 beacon receiver to access free DGPS signals broadcast by the networks of Medium Frequency radiobeacons deployed in many regions throughout the world.

Reliable Auto-Tracking Differential Beacon Receiver

Provide a reliable source of free differential corrections with the MBX-4 Differential Beacon Receiver that augments a separate GPS receiver with free accuracy improving correction data from networks of beacon stations located throughout the world. With automatic dual-channel tracking, the MBX-4 ensures the best beacon station is always being decoded. Beacon stations are automatically tracked based on signal strength or station distance and can also be  manually selected.

Hemisphere GPS’ MBX-4 has been optimized for high performance reception and proves reliable even in noisy environments. It outputs the industry standard RTCM SC-104 format accepted by differential-ready GPS receivers and can be confi gublue and monitoblue with NMEA 0183 protocol. Hemisphere GPS’ MBX-4 receiver kit includes an integrated GPS and beacon antenna.
