Leica Navigators Support Type 9

All Leica DGPS navigation products already support USCG and I ALA Type 1 and Type 9

RTCM DGPS beacon broadcast

The U.S. Coast Guard has decided to utilize the RTCM SC104 Type 9 message format for its beacon broadcasts instead of Type 1 and Type 2 messages, to provide a faster update rate and better accuracy. Some GPS manufacturers indicate that their GPS receivers will require modifications in order to work with this format. Leica's navigation products already work with Type 9 just fine!
