02 - LabSat3 Components

LabSat 3 has been designed to be portable and simple to use allowing virtually anyone to gather field test signals
without in depth training. Recording GNSS signals is as simple as positioning the antenna and pressing one button. The
sunlight-readable graphic display gives instant feedback of record status and can show live histogram data to verify
satellites in view during recording. Back at the Lab, recorded signals can be replayed at the push of a button for
repeatable, reliable testing.
