Joe,
I went to the Trimble website and they don't make the Scout anymore. They do
make some good equipment. If the antenna is a low cost one, I'd recommend
buying one from eBay.


Yeah they have some nifty features. Seem the socuts were only sold to
the military.
I've been watching e-bay for some time and only see combo's..the GPS &
antenna and they run 4-500. The guy I got it from said he used it in
an up armoured hummer in Afganstan. It's just a round magnetic antenna
you would stick to the roof. I figured it has to be better than the
internal antenna.



If it is a precision antenna (costing several hundred dollars) I'd be
willing to repair the thing for you for free. I need to see pictures of the
case, a model number and a picture of the connector to see if it is
repairable.

Thanks for the offer, Ill try to solder it and see if that works..it
may not be much of an issue since my wheelhouse is not covered in
armor plate.

Is your antenna active? Does it have a built in ampifier?

Not sure.
