Hi @MalikD233 , This is all existing functionality - it simply requires knowledge of the relevant UBX messages to poll, which you can get from the Integration and Interface Manuals for your particular u-blox receiver. Re. "receiver type" - This information can be obtained by polling the UBX MON-VER, MON-HW and MON-RF message types - this is exactly what the PyGPSClient utility does to produce the following receiver information panel: ![]() See this code example for an illustration of how to poll specific UBX message types. Re. "supported bands" - This information can be obtained by polling the UBX MON-RF message type, though the specific configuration (e.g. L2/L5) is defined in hardware rather than software - see your receiver's Integration Manual for details. Some advanced receivers (e.g. ZED-F9P) also support the UBX MON-SPAN message which will give you real time spectrum analysis data for each supported radio frequency band - in this example from a ZED-F9P module, there is support for L1 and L2 bands: ![]() See this code example for an illustration of how to produce a spectrum plot like the one above from a raw MON-SPAN message log. |

Dear Semuconsulting Team,
I would like to suggest the addition, if not already present, of a feature that enables users to query the u-blox receiver type. Additionally, it would be beneficial to incorporate a function that provides an output detailing the supported bands (L1, L2, or L5) of the utilized u-blox receiver.
Thank you in advance for considering this enhancement. Your dedication to excellence is truly commendable.
Warm regards.
