keep in mind that the RF layout of cf-18 MK1 and MK4 are different as I discovered lately with the help of Rob's collection of schematic for Cf-18.

I bought quite a few of the boards from this dude. not a bad price if you don't mind the wait from Norway. Kinda cool he brought this to us because I was working on something similar but I like his much better as you can add on to the board through the pads on the back of the board. Pure genius :headbang:

Installed 2 more of these kits in a friends pair of CF-29s. he had bought 3 of them, so we had 4 of these GPS kits in one room. Both installed kits worked great first try. I'll be installing the last kit in my father's CF-29.

These kits are fantastic!

Hi there!

I am interested in the CF-29 GPS unit. How does it compare to the factory unit and does it have an external antenna port. Also, can you describe where it mounts and costs?
Thanks!
