Looking for John Deere SF-RTK?
SF-RTK is John Deere’s own correction subscription (delivered via Deere infrastructure). Our Bases deliver the same practical result—centimetre-level guidance—by streaming RTK corrections from local base stations over 4G/NTRIP (RTCM3), which typically converges faster than satellite-only corrections and avoids dealer lock-in.
If your John Deere display/receiver supports MOBILE RTK, our base station wil be 'plug & play'. If you specifically need an SF-RTK licence, that’s a separate Deere subscription.
