    RTCM corrections. SBAS tracking The HS80/HS80A can scan and track SBAS signals without the need to tune the receiver. The HS80/HS80A features two-channel tracking that provides an enhanced ability to maintain a lock on an SBAS satellite when more than one satellite is in view. This redundant tracking approach results in more consistent tracking of an SBAS signal in areas where signal blockage of a satellite is possible.
