GRTech Beacon 4.0/5.0 NTRIP Client is designed to deliver RTK corrections to GPS receivers capable of receiving them. This app is intended to be used exclusively with the GRTech Beacon 4.0/5.0 family of devices. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. Background GPS usage will end when you stop the data stream or the Beacon is no longer connected.
