Antenna Unit RSB-0093

[Anonymous]

I just received as a gift an used Marine Radar Antenna Unit Type RSB-0093 and would like to buy a compatible display for it. It is complete with long cable with the connection. So if somebody can tell me what display unit (do I need external power supply?) to get and where to find the operation & installation manuals I would be in your debt.
I have a Lowrance LMS-520C with a radar capability but I was told by the tech guy that it is not compatible with Furuno.
Thanks

The RSB0093-074 scanner unit is used as part of the 1623 radar system.

You would need both the display with power cable to go with the scanner....

...and at least a 5m scanner cable.(but it sounds like you have one)

No manufacturers radar will work with another brand unless it is a rebranded product under the same company.

Thank you very much, this is what I needed to know: the MODEL 1623.
Now to find a display..... Just found one in England and is on eBay, to bid on it I am.
I live in Arizona and my boat is in Bahia de Kino in the state of Sonora, Mexico. So if visiting Kino Bay, you are invited to a fishing trip, just let me know.

Hi I have a bought a boat with a Furuno 1623 unit but the antenna RSB0093 is missing. Do you know Is there any other compatible antennas for this equipment ? or where to find a spare one in working conditions? Thank you

There is not, but the 1623 is still sold and the dome (RSB0093-074) can be purchased from your dealer.
