[Loadstone] User Range Error

[Shawn Kirkpatrick]

The user range error setting is multiplied by the accuracy value from the 
gps receiver to give an estimated accuracy in metres. I doubt a higher value 
would give you better results. You can probably use the default of 8 unless 
you know that your receiver does better or worse.
