GPS antenna cable type??
 
I'm trying to install a Furuno GP32 fixed mount and I already have an
antenna cable run left over from my old Trimble NavTrac. The cable is in
good condition but the Furuno has different connector size.. The old cable
has no type designation, just a little heavier than the VHF stuff..

Just what type/designation is normally used for proper match, etc.??

Any idea what the designation is for the Furuno connector on the back??

Thanks.

Ok, I determined that the connector is a TNC and I found a straight one at
Radio Shack, but I really need a 90 deg for a clean installation.. Have to
check some catalogs..

Mouser's a great electronics parts place. They'll sell you ONE
resistor if you like....no minimum order.

Hey Steve,
Next time your in Seattle, check out Westlake Electronics, on Westlake
Ave., a couple of blocks south of Lake Union. They stock just about all
of the adapters and connectors that you will ever need. They also stock
Belden Brand cable of all types. Ask for Denny, and tell 'em Bruce
sent you.
