Hi Alexey, I updated the firmware to version 1.1 and I have a problem with receiving the NTRP correction. If RX recived any corrections, the device will automatically restart. Can you please help me somehow?

Thanks for reporting!

It seems we’ve found what could be the cause of such behavior. The devs are already working on it. Once there’s any news about this, I’ll make sure to let you know.

Hi Dorin,

These are rather internal changes made under the hood which are related to the overall system performance. If there are bug fixes for the particular functionality of the receiver, we are always sure to add them to the release notes.

Hi Kelly,

For now, we add the release notes to the forum and our docs. But we’ll consider other ways of letting the users know about the updates.
