    I bought the ones off EBay from CB Concepts and they work great. Got the 6 foot 6 inch in amber and put them under the gunwales. I wish I got the longer ones and put them all the way to the bulkhead. They come with more then enough mounting clips.

    GPS will not lock on Satellites

    I had the same problem and the antenna was bad. My antenna was a LGC-3000 and Lowrance has on their web site ways to troubleshoot it. Lowrance sent me a LGC 4000 which is a newer version and it works perfect. They also gave me a very good price on it. You should contact Lowrance
