GPS Antenna Ground Plate

Improve your GPS antenna's multipath convergence time to near survey - grade GNSS levels! This simple steel plate can boost the performance of a basic patch antenna to nearly professional - level setups. The steel disc serves as a ground plane for low - cost patch antennas. When paired with the Ublox GPS - RTK NEO - M8P receiver, it enables centimeter - level positioning. The 1/8 - inch thick steel plate has a ¼ - 20 UNC thread, fitting standard camera mounting screws. Although it's not the sleekest steel piece and weighs 0.4211 lbs, it provides a stable base for a GPS magnetic mount antenna on a tripod. It features a 4 - inch diameter, 1/8 - inch thickness, and an industrial finish.

Using this GPS antenna ground plate is easy. First, attach it to a standard ¼ - 20 UNC camera mounting screw on your tripod. Then, place your GPS magnetic mount antenna on the flat surface of the plate. This will help improve the antenna's performance and give you more accurate positioning. When handling the plate, be careful as it weighs 0.4211 lbs. Keep it in a dry place to prevent rusting. If it gets dirty, you can clean it with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Remember, the plate is not designed to be very sleek, but it's all about functionality for better GPS performance.
