[drats_users] GPS Reciever Question

[John D. Hays]

Contact Jason (sales at rpc-electronics.com ) he made me a nice Garmin 
4-PIN to IC91AD custom molded cable for less than you'll probably pay at 
Boater's World, the venerable 45 should work just fine if it works at 
all, the only thing is that it can track fewer satellites than the 
current generation.
