Does the RTK Antenna Or LoRa Antenna Require a "Line of sight" to Yarbo?

No, they don't. Understanding the logic behind the RTK System and the rover enables you to answer this question. Yarbo doesn't rely on direct visibility of the RTK System(RTK Antenna, LoRa Antenna and RTK Base). However, installing the RTK Antennas requires a clear view of the sky, with at least 120° of unobstructed space to receive satellite signals. While the RTK System provides real-time corrections and accurate GPS data to the Yarbo device, it doesn't require a direct line of sight to Yarbo S1.
