individual pseudoranges. Trying to compute errors from the computed
solution is not robust against choosing different satellites. There
are receivers that will generate corrections, and one can in theory do
this with receivers with raw data outputs, but most cheap receivers do
not do this.
You won't really be sharing the same satellites unless you have the same
obstructions.
