Got my receiver, and the instructions show a Y-cable from the GPS receiver. I thought it would plug straight into my 997. Any input?

I would thing it would hook up like the Wheather Sense module. J White I thing posted a hook up that would probably work for you. Mite do a search on his post this year and find that diagram or it may have just been written instructions. I think you use the Y-cable to connect it and your GPS to the same port, I would have to get my manual out to be sure, and I'm about 100 miles away. But I'm sure some one will give you the right info.Quote:

I'm going to install this weekend. I'm hoping it plugs into the open slot in the 997. I can't find where anybody has given a review of its performance---don't know if that's good or bad.
You can plug your XM Weather receiver directly into the unit and then plug your GPS Antenna into the 6 inch pigtail that comes out of the XM Weather module. You should be ready to go.
