Anyone out there using GeoLock? What is you set-up? How well is it working?

Any input will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Brian-
I have used both versions a few years ago and prefer the unit that sits atop the rod to the card that attaches to the data collector via the SD slot. The top unit works well but could be better, maybe Trimble has developed a better product since I purchased some two years ago.

I use it, it seems to kick in after about 50 shots. If you start collecting data out in the open, it does seem to help maintain lock or re-establish lock when you move into the vegation. We are using the card slot as our S6 is bluetooth.

I have a Holux card. Not that impressed with it yet. I've had it out twice for test runs in the parking lot, nothing that far away and definitely not 50 shots into the solution. It seemed to solve after about 10-15 shots, but never really "knew" where I was. I guess it takes more shots to refine it's solution than the literature says.

Thanks for the input!
