[arm-allstar] BBB/Pi or RTCM

[R. Wayne]

No, actually it wasn't. Let's not beat up on the new guy trying to 
understand. OK? He wrote:

"The RPi2 could be used to replace a PC acid box to interface with the 
RTCM's at your remote locations."

If the RTCM is capable of running without a PC of some sorts why the RPi2?

Just help me understand and if it troubles you you need not reply.

No!  I think that was explained to you right on the first email. Only xipar 
and the rtcm can vote the way you want.
