RTCM3 MSM compatibility issues?

I became aware last week that the RS2 - in base mode - only sends out MSM4 corrections. Hence my other thread in Getting Started.

…BUT I hadn’t clocked that an RS2 rover will similarly only utilise the more modern MSM4, MSM5 or MSM7 type RTCM3.2 correction messages from the base.

I’ve only successfully tested my RS2 rover with another RS2 as a base and a handful of public mount-points from the RTK2go public caster. As it turns out they happened to all be sending out MSM messages…

I haven’t tested with my own Leica GR50 base just sending out bog standard 3.1 corrections as it’s off being repaired at the moment.

So @tatiana.andreeva will an RS2 rover not be able to successfully utilise “classic” (GPS + GLO only) corrections - that is RTCM 3.1 messages?
