Re: Nmea gps reciever

I ended up using a cheaper Garmin 18 LVC "hockey puck" style. Worked perfectly. Got it on eBay for like $40. Click the link below to see the thread I started on the Ericson Group site when I was trying to figure out if the cheaper puck would work.

Re: Nmea gps reciever

do a search for gps MODULE with wiring connector - I picked one up, powered it with a gutted car usb charger, stuffed it all in a prescription bottle, and hooked it right up to the radio

Total cost about $30
