Figured I'd just revive my old thread on this topic rather than start a new one...
After three years, and no luck recalibrating, I've come to the conclusion my DST-800SF is just tits-up in the temperature department. No big deal, as speed through water and depth were my primary concerns anyway, having temp was just a bonus. That being said, I'm hauling in a couple weeks to do a bottom job, and figured (assumed) after three years, Airmar has finally got their shlit together on this what appears to be temp issue, and I'm safe to replace.
Question:
Rather than "fish" another 20 foot drop cable from the DST-800 over to my N2K junction box (up down in and around through the boat), can I just splice the new DST-800 into the existing drop cable using N2k micro drop cable field-attachable connectors?
