Model 1940, Type RDP 078 radar

[Anonymous]

I recently purchased my boat. The radar works fine at the lower station and the upper station powers up and make all the audible sounds indicating it is working though there is no visual anything on the screen. Is there a repair center I can send this to? I see on e bay there is a Model 1830 RDP 076 unit available. Would this be compatible with my system? Do you know of a place I can purchase a monitor for y my system? Please let me know, thanks.

It might be time to move up from the 1940 radar (23-27 years old). The 1830 display you found on e-bay wouldn't have a large enough power supply to run the 1940 scanner. You would be looking for the RDP078 display designed to work with the 1940 radar.

Thanks, I plan on an upgrade just thought I might squeeze a season out of a quick fix. Thanks.
