L2 GPS missing/Header error - Post processing ReachRS2 + pospac Lidar

Hi Arnaud

RS2 records L2C only, it does not record L2P.
L2C is only available for new satellite generation. While L2P is available for all satellites.

That means: if a satellite is older generation, RS2 only log L1.
Unfortunately, their is still many satellites with only L2P (in such case RS2 does not log L2).

In Americas, where we mostly used GPS and Glonass having a receiver that only records L2C can be an issue since there is still many satellites that do not offer L2C.
