    Proprietary IFR GPS?

    Proprietary IFR GPS?

    Future Lowrance D180 Hook-up

    Okay, the only cable I see on the Lowrance site is a PC data cable. Is that what I want? The programmers must be tired of going to Fiji by now.

    Future Lowrance D180 Hook-up

    Once the firmware is updated to accomodate the Lowrance Airmap 500, how would I go about wiring the GPS to my D180? Instructions should start with "go to the store and get..." You guys at Dynon just get better and better. ;D Thanks
