Northstar GPS sattelite reconfiguration

[Ric]

Hey guys it’s been a long time
I’ve been having problems with my Northstar
952 Wass GPS
Does anybody have a name or business that can
Recalibrate this GPS unit
Yes it’s old 17 years old
But I would like to get it tuned up
If anybody knows of a place that could
Recalibrate ,, the sattelite signal or works on
these fabulous Ma machines

These are good units I have two of them. There is a place called Martek https://martekmd.com/ also Hampton Navigation http://www.electronicsforboats.com/ give one of these a try.

you sure its the unit, and not the antenna
do you have someone in your area you could hook in to there antenna to make sure

[Ric]

Yeah I’m preety sure it doesn’t go through the prompts
Just goes right to providing the serial number
then it re- boots
And goes back to normal but I lost all saved waypoints
When I shut it off
And start it ,,, goes right to serial number prompts
Nobody knows anybody snywhere that services these machines
What a drag

Unfortunately the days of repairing these machines are long gone. I tried last year with a Garmin. I was told not worth it and no parts are available as well as repairing electronics is a lost art.

Good luck in you search but be ready to replace it.
