Found your channel by way of SteelheadJedi, channel. I have two questions, how far can you shoot a target on a very clear day? Also how far could shoot a target on a very clear night?

[@SmithSurveying]

Welcome to the channel!:] Using just the base and a rover we are able to go out about 1 mile. We use a repeater that allows us to get radio signal up to around 5 miles away. It all depends on the position of the satellites and terrain though. Are you a surveyor?

[@armorvestrus4119]

It appears you don't have many trees to mark blazes in your region, so what helps you find the corners without the trees. Is it another type of signal?

[@SmithSurveying]

There are times that stone piles are used near monuments. The original surveyors dug pits near the corners too and they gave a bearing and distance. I research the corners before I go out in the field so I know exactly what I am looking for. They did a good job describing the land so it is easy to follow in their footsteps. Have you ever read original survey notes? You can use this link to research old surveys: glorecords.blm.gov

@@SmithSurveying The reason I asked about how the corners are marked, is because I have seen stones stacked up on some mountain tops as if they had been placed there to mark something. I see these in places where there are no trees to blaze but i don't know for sure. Anyway I enjoy watching videos about surveying methods of all kinds new and old.
