I must be missing something. Can someone explain the difference between the Furuno SC30 and the SC-30 satellite compass? They appear to have the same name and look but somewhat different specs.

SC-30 (1 degree of bearing accuracy):

SC-30 (.5 degrees of accuracy):
https://www.furuno.com/en/products/compass/SC-30

What's the difference between these two? They appear to have the same model number.

2) Looking to add GPS and maybe heading sensor to my MFD12 and DRS12A. Don't need the newest and greatest, any suggestions for what might work, something either in or out of production that I could pick up used? Thanks!
 
Those are both the same product. One is on the Furuno USA-specific page and the other is on the native Furuno page that is produced by Japan. Both are discontinued. I would recommend the SCX-20 (NMEA 2000) or SCX-21 (NMEA 0813). Which one you want depends on your needs.
