			=== Verifying base station NTRIP configuration ===

			If you want to ensure your base station is casting NTRIP information correctly, you can verify this using any other computer on the local network with the str2str (part of RTKLib) and gpsdecode (part of gpsd) commands.

			Connect to the NTRIP caster using the following command, this should output RTCM3 messages to the console:

			'''str2str -in ntrip://ntrip_user:ntrip_password@ntrip_host:ntrip_port/ntrip_mount \| gpsdecode'''

			Replace the above with the following:
			* ntrip_user = Local caster username
			* ntrip_password = Local caster password
			* ntrip_host = Local caster hostname or IP address
			* ntrip_port = Local caster port
			* ntrip_mount = Local caster mount name

	Here is a very simple set-up of a working RTK-GPS base station for the OpenMower project.		Here is a very simple set-up of a working RTK-GPS base station for the OpenMower project.

			The purpose is to make base RTK GPS station that can broadcast base GPS RTK information on your local network to give OpenMower the reference data for accurate GPS localization.
