The M12 boards arrived today, but there is a small problem with them. The
holes for the receiver 2x5 .050 spaced pins are too small. The Furuno pins
measure around .003" wider than the Motorola pins (that fit, rather tightly) so
probably also some PCB drill hole/plating tolerance issues.
I got in my prototype Furuno GT-8031 adapter boards in and it is working well.
Lady Heather now works with the GT-8031.
The M12 prototpe adapter boards have shipped from OSHPARK a couple of days ago.
They might get here today.
I have since updated the adapter boards to add a CR2032 backup
I have a unit out to Mark Sims for eval and testing with Lady Heather.
Furuno isn't honoring last year's quote. For qty 100+ they quoted me
$35.00 each. That was the quote for qty 1 last year. I pushed back and
they dropped it slightly to $33.94 -not much of a discount and that's their
1000+
What is latest on a group buy, have I missed something I am ready to buy
