Simrad GS70 Installation guide

  • Hello! I've reviewed the Installation Guide for the SIMRAD GS70 antenna. This document covers mounting options, technical specifications, wiring, and compliance information. I understand that the GS70 is designed with various installation options, including surface and pole mounting while providing NMEA 2000 networking. I'm ready to answer your questions about the GS70 and its installation.
  • What is the horizontal accuracy of the GS70?
    What is the operating temperature range for the GS70?
    What is the power consumption of the GS70?
