Well, it came yesterday. Great box. Looks like the challenge will be
'mounting' the GXM 30 XM antenna in the Maule.
The thing has a big non-removeable magnet so distance from the compass
is needed. It has an extension cord and mounting screws but needs good
sky exposure... any thoughts are welcome.
Garmin should know better. What were they thinking?
Otherwise, the yoke mount looks fine and the unit itself has me
drooling. NC to FL next week!
Mine came Wednesday, been foolin' around with it in the car. I think I'm going
to like it a lot, but that antenna thing is a definite drawback: the fact that
you have 2 separate antennas with two wires to manage, and the magnet.
Let us know if you come up with an elegant solution.
