I have a low frequency (Coast Guard beacons) DGPS receiver which I will give to a new home. It hasn't been used for a decade - I sold my boat.

The big problem is that I can't find any indication of the manufacturer or type number.  I'm sure I have papers about it ... but they refuse to "come to the top". I'll keep looking.

The interface to the GPS is 9-pin mini-D. I used it with a Garmin which went with the boat ... 10 years ago. I'll include a marine rail clamp which screws into the bottom of the unit.

The antenna (Shakepeare) is 48 inches long.

Here are two photos, with and without antenna screwed in:

I'd send it from AMSAT hdq, and will require a donation to AMSAT to cover the boxes and UPS (AMSAT accepts PayPal). Might be around $25 or maybe more.

Is anyone interested?
