I really like your no-nonsense approach to the marine world, and when you applied dielectric grease to every connection I smiled and wished everyone would do this. You got a new subscriber and I hope you do more informational videos and installs.
Jason, this is very nice works and you sir seem to have great knowledge in what you are doing. I have a full furuno suite with twin 12 inches tz3's, a naviplot 300 and nxt radar, I am planning on installing a SXC20 compass instead of the PG700 that came with the pilot. the issue I have is selecting the proper location for the sensor. My boat is only a small center console on trailer with soft canvas T-Top. the Furuno bulletin to install the scx sensor shows it should be placed above and away from the radar which in my case makes it complicated. I am wondering if I should just first try to put the sensor on top of my console and see how this is gonna work before purchasing different mounts and fittings ($$$). What's your opinion? thanks in advance for your time.
If you can get a mount to put it above the radar, that's ideal.. If not, a stable place with an unobstructed view should be fine. They are generally installed above the radar so as 1. Not to be in the beam of the radar. 2 . to avoid multipath interference from the structures of the boat (the scx-20 should be more resistant to multipath than traditional sat compasses, but it's still to be avoided) and 3. to have a clear unobstructed view of the satellites.
