GPS Speedo's
 

I was wondering does the receivers for the GPS speedo's have to be exposed for them to work or can they be tucked away???

My "Puck" as they call it, is under my fiberglass/wood fairing. So, no. They don't have to be out in the open.

I allways heard that the antenna/puck had to be able to 'see' the sky/satellite. But if it works under the deck that's great.

we have 2 antennas mounted under our kevlar deck and 2 under/sides of our canopies.

Wow a thread that shows proved facts:eureka:

Mine has been under the dash for two seasons with zero problems.

If you have not mounted your tattletale switch yet you may want to consider a switch that matches or even an empty acc. switch that you can change over to a momentary switch. Just a thought (can you tell I don't care for the switch it comes with).:D

Great. This helps squelch an old myth. Now on to more practical info. Who has the best deals on analog complete GPS units both standard and Monster series?

I'm with Scott, use switches that match. I had a new switch panel made with engraving for the GPS switch.

I like the digital better. You can see exact speed & can tell when you over or undertrim very quickly.

Try Fred. He's just getting into this business.

scott,

that is a good idea. what do you have to do to do this?
