Yep has to be in the puck thats what talks/receives with satellite. Basically U would be buying a new ant. for $199.oo & just plug it in right where present ant. is. Ok to use with 797,997, 1197. supposed to be plug & go. New ant. will not be for sale until early 2009 as per HB cust service as I already called to see if there was a waiting list & if I could get on. Nope no dice, so Heck with HB gonna just wait & first see what SLOW GPS fix is goona be.......... I am thinking now I may just want to use 997 for SI views only and buy a new Garmin or Furano system as my main units.
Yes do to my Good nature I will be sure to thank HB for the $2000.oo Enema
