Of course, but they say that there is a DC continuity from the N connector downto the Furuno receiver: this is very strange. These the exact words:

Very strange also because the inductor will prevent the receiver from getting any signal. Another strange thing: I haven't never saved any survey in my Z3815A and I have seen that in case of a power cycle the survey is repeated. The faulty Z3815A seems always acquiring and never tracking: maybe a Furuno clock problem? What can prevent a GPS receiver to enter the tracking state?
