# Hardware recommendations

You will need a GNSS receiver and antenna in order to be able to mine rewards. onocoy is hardware-agnostic, meaning it can work with any type of receiver and antenna, provided they meet the technical requirements.

Onocoy does not sell its own hardware. Here are a few recommendations [from our partners](https://onocoy.com/partners):

Some remarks if you want to DIY or bring your own:

* For maximizing rewards, a triple- or quad band GNSS receiver that supports all of the major constellations (GPS, Galileo, Beidou and Glonass) is required.
* GNSS receivers with a lower number of supported frequency bands (e.g. only L1+L2, or L1+L5) will receive rewards, albeit at a lower level than triple/quad band receivers
* A high quality GNSS antenna which supports the receiver’s frequency bands.
* The GNSS receiver should either directly support connection to an Ethernet/Wifi network, or be connected to a host (Raspberry Pi, ESP32, or equivalent) that acts as a bridge.&#x20;
* The receiver must have "NTRIP Server" functionality.
* Please note that GNSS receivers only receive signals, hence, there is no additional electromagnetic transmission originating from operating the receiver.
