Answer 3 questions about your receivers and see your one-time and yearly cost.
Sub-inch RTK on the StarFire receiver you already own, delivered over the cell network. No radio tower and no line of sight. Plug it in, turn the key, and it connects itself.
- Fits: StarFire 3000, 6000, 7000 and 7500. It bolts on with the same mount and factory harness as the Deere RTK radio.
- Price: $2,000 per receiver, one time. You own it.
- Corrections: add the Cloudbase RTK Correction Subscription ($699/yr) above to run on the Cloudbase Network, or run the free State CORS Network and we set the modem up for it before it ships.
- Data: add our SIM ($79/yr, 250 MB a month) above, or use your own.
- Check first: some 3000 and 6000 receivers need an mRTK license. Send us your serial number and we check it free.
- Outside Cloudbase Network coverage? Host a base station on your farm for $0 in hardware.
60-day money-back guarantee on the hardware. Free coverage check: call or text 765-490-1824.

How Cloudbase works
1 — The Cloudbase Network's base stations generate the corrections. You subscribe to the network, not to a single base, and it connects each machine to the closest one. Not covered yet? Cloudbase supplies a base station for $0 and we install it.
2 — Corrections ride the cell network to the Cloudbase modem on each machine. No radio signals, no line-of-sight issues.
3 — Your receiver locks in consistent sub-inch RTK — any color equipment, one machine or a full fleet.
Cloudbase vs Radio vs SF-RTK
Radio RTK needs line-of-sight to a tower and drops in rolling ground. SF-RTK rents you a satellite signal at about $1,500 per receiver every year, forever. Cloudbase rides the cell network your phone already uses — a $2,000 modem you own, $699 a year for corrections with a portal and a farmer on the phone, no contract.
