Wiring problems

[mike60]

Well! Its parked in the garden here on Bovington, I am looking for some kind person to give me a price to come & help me with wiring the VHF to the plotter & fitting a navtex & kill switch.

If there is anyone in the club with a bit of a flair for this sort of thing I would love to hear from you.

PM me or call me on 01929 401716

& I`m sure we can fix you up with tea/coffee or even a couple of cold ones.

Hi Mike

 

I can probably help you with most of this.

 

Can you remind me which model of VHF, GPS and Navtex you have?

I don't want anything for doing it.

 

Give me a call on 07802 8790973 and we'll arrange a time.

 

cheers

Well! I seem to have lost Bob, Don`t know what happened there? if you are still offering, Bob, can you give me your number (without 12 digits.) I can then give you a call.

Might also help to mention that this thread is now on page 3 if you search for "Bluewater Horizons Poole" in Google .......

 

The wonders of the internet.

 

Ditto here ( Electonics Engineer ) with regard to your GPS to VHF - if you let us know what models they are can probably get the information from their website. Hooking them up is really a fairly straightforward job ( if not confusing as Steve says)

 

"Hooking them up is really a fairly straightforward job"

I wouldn`t say that, according to the books wires of different colours go together & the tx from gps to vhf has to connect to the ground on the vhf set of wires. Now thats damn confusing to me! I`m getting to the point of using an irish screwdriver & just going back to using paper charts & a mobile phone.

The last 6 months have taken thier toll & I am not the patient type.

I spoke to Bob on the phone today & he`s coming over tomorrow to give me a hand, Seems like a really nice bloke.

I think I`m just getting a bit fed up after all thats happened, Just hoping its all done with & I can get on with a really decent season. Some good days out & some mega cracking fish & I`l be right as rain again. (we can all live in hope!!)
