The SF7500 Receiver
The StarFire Receiver
John Deere offers precision agriculture receivers like the StarFire 7500 and 7000, with various correction signals (SF1, SF3, SF-RTK, and Mobile RTK) for different accuracy needs, including RTK-like accuracy with the SF-RTK signal.
The SF-RTK features a 2.5 cm pass to pass accuracy a 73% faster pull-in times compared to SF3 signal as it tracks and uses correction signals from all StarFire satellites in view and intelligently chooses one that delivers the best performance. When the receiver moves into an area where the primary StarFire signal is blocked, such as near a tree line, the receiver automatically switches to an alternate StarFire signal (if visible) to help maintain accuracy and performance. This provides the highest accuracy level, along with long-term repeatability to enable advanced guidance features and the confidence that guidance lines and boundaries won't shift from year to year.




John Deere Mobile RTK Signal
John Deere Mobile RTK Signal is now compatible with the StarFire™ 7500 Receiver. John Deere mRTK is ideal for customers needing precise navigation in situations where direct line of site to satellites is impeded by dense tree areas and/or hilly terrains, such as a golf course.
This solution utilizes RTK correction data from the John Deere Mobile RTK network. A machine equipped with a John Deere Modular Telematics Gateway (MTG) and JDLink™ connectivity enabled can connect through the JDLink cellular network and John Deere Mobile RTK network to get repeatable RTK correction data wherever the coverage of both networks is available
