One of the great features of the RTK Facet mosaic is that it has the ability to get corrections from PointPerfect over L-Band. No need for NTRIP credentials! [Contact SparkFun](https://www.sparkfun.com/rtk_facet_mosaic_registration) with your device ID, pay a monthly fee of $50 per month (as of this writing) and your device will obtain credentials and start receiving corrections anywhere in the contiguous USA.

It is important that you set your Geographic Region correctly, via the menu or web config page, as this determines both the IP correction distribution topic and the L-Band frequency (on L-Band-capable products). Sadly, u-blox are suspending their EU L-Band service on March 10th 2025. L-Band coverage will only be available in the contiguous USA from that date.
