GARMIN GPSMAP 492 with Internal Antenna with Accessories

[ANYTIME]

I have installed a new GPSMAP 440 with the G2 Vision Card on my new boat to supplement the built-in Raymarine C80. This new unit replaced my 1.5 year old GPS 492 (Internal Antenna). I wanted the Bluewater G2 Vision Card capability on my new boat, so the 492 is now for sale.

I will accept the first reasonable offer for my like new GPSMAP 491. See the Garmin website for it's features. I will include an unused power cable (wires to electrical source), a 12 Volt Cigarette Lighter cable and the cable to connect the GPSMAP 491 to a 9-Pin Serial Port on a computer. I will also include the Garmin Datacard Reader along with the Driver CDROM and a blank Datacard. This datacard held several hundered of my waypoints and 20 routes.

I have removed all my route/waypoint data from the GPSMAP 492 and datacard. I have all original documentation and the original box, but unfortunately, I didn't save the original inserts for the box.

You may pick this unit up or I will ship it to you. Figure on paying UPS or USPS postage for about 10 lbs from ZIP CODE 22701. Check eBay to see how much these sell for and make a reasonable offer, otherwise, I will place it on eBay in a few days.

2 questions:

You mention a 491 and a 492 in your post. I am assuming it is the 492 w/ color screen. Am I correct?

Can the unit be equipped with an external antenna to overide the internal antenna? Reception with Saint Max' hard top concerns me

This model of the 492 does not have provisions to install an external antenna.

Thanks for asking.

Sam - PM sent. I couldn't find any on eBay in either current auctions or recently completed so I guessed on my offer.....
