Which brings up an interesting question. Is it permissable to install a
plug and receptical at the mast partners so that you don't have to
unwire everything back to the display when you pull the mast?
I can't see anything wrong with this or a junction box, IMHO and limited
experience.
In my Furuno cables there is only one small coax cable and that problem
would have to be dealt with, perhaps with just weather proof connector. The
remaining 10 are ordinary color coded stranded conductors.
Of course if supplied an inline connector, they would use something
propietory and charge 10% the price of the radar for it. (Still bitter about
$35 for a NMEA data connector/pigtail)..
