Float season is over for 2024. :-( The water is 32 degrees and there is a thin skim of ice.Thank goodness for amphibs!

Looking for Dynon SV GPS 250
I think my Dynon GPS 250 receiver module finally packed it in.It has been doing funny things for a while, but we thought it may have just been the metal hangar we are in.It is mounted on the glare shield so it does take the full anger of the engine.It does not get any satellites now and there is the required 8 Volts going to it from the Dynon.It is also 12 years old so I am not surprised if it finally decided to quit.Does anyone have one lying around that they are not using?See More
