Vertical error if antenna not oriented?
I screwed up my last gps session by forgetting to orient the antenna with the arrow north (it was east).
Can someone more familiar with antenna calibrations tell me how much effect this might have on the elevation measurement in a long session?
I might suspect that the APC height might be different depending on the direction of arrival. This is a Trimble TRM14532.00 NONE.
For this one I’m not concerned about the horizontal, which I expect would be the bigger error, because I already planned on a note saying horizontal centering is loose due to tall pole.
This was my first session with a homemade 2.5 meter pole and I don’t have the drill down pat yet. When putting the antenna on a tribrach it was easy to remember the orientation step.
