Lowrance LMS-520 w/o GPS

[deep-v]

Couple of questions about the Lowrance LMS-520 w/o GPS:

1. Is this unit a color unit?

2. What does the w/o GPS mean? Does it mean that there is no GPS capabilities with this unit, or does it mean that it comes with no GPS antenna?

If it comes with the capabilities, but no antenna, it can be connected to the network and share the external GPS antenna with another unit. Correct?


Thanks,

I have one of these units on back order. It is a color unit and has GPS software but does not come with an external antennae. The antennae can be purchased later to add on to the unit and make the gps functional. If you have a unit with an external antennae you could probably buy a splitter and it would work for both units.

Yes, and it's cheaper than a 510.
