Trimble Trimpack Family of GPS receivers © Brooke Clarke, N6GCE 2003 - 2016 Pathfinder Receiver eoBeacon 54970-10 Background I have seen Trimpack, Trimpac, Trimpak, Transpack, Transpac and Transpak, Spartan. Don't know why all the different names.

I've tried to separate some of these based on some manuals but if you know more about the names please. The first generation of receivers used conventional receiver design. The second generation used a Digital Signal Processing (DSP) chip or a custom DSP chip and processed only a small number of channels (4 is the minimum number of satellites needed for a fix, but a receiver with fewer than 4 channels can be used by time sharing one or more channels.). The first Trimpack type GPS receiver was only a 2 channel unit. Later models were 3 channel and the last in the series were 6 channels where 4 channels were always tracking the best 4 satellites and the other 2 channels were searching for better satellites. Modern (2003) GPS receivers are 12 channel designs and can track all the satellites in view. This has a big advantage because the receiver does not need to drop one satellite to acquire another.

Since there are 24 satellites in orbits that are relativity close the the Earth, only about half of them can be seem at one time so 12 channels is an optimum number for a GPS only receiver.

There are a number of Differential correction transmitters operating in the 283.5 - 325 kHz Low Frequency band and when their data is fed into a GPS receiver it's accuracy is improved.
