Hi

Just as a reference point, one can get 0.006/0.006/0.012 sort of errors with a fairly rotten antenna
and 24 hours of data from a 2004 era L1 / L2 receiver. One key consideration is that the error bars on the 
“estimated locations” of the reference stations are close to those numbers.

It supports GPS/SBAS/GLONASS/GALILEO (with hooks for future BEIDOU) observations).  GLONASS and GALILEO have not yet been tested with the M8T...  I'm still waiting for the M8T to arrive.  It currently outputs RINEX 2.11 format with some hooks for future v3.03 support.
