Asking for some collective wisdom to repair or replace the masthead transducer 
of my Standard Horizon WS 150 unit.  Wind speed is fine, but direction read 
outs are erratic.  Very certain the issue is the masthead transducer (5 pin). 
Suspect the magnet pickups are failing

 

Has been out of production for > 10 years.  Design was picked up by Navman and 
Navico but now discontinued.  Got a Navman 3100 masthead unit brand new that 
supposedly was a comparable item but does not work for close hauled.  Magnet 
orientation is quite different.  If anyone has a NAVMAN system this unit is 
available.

 

Hate to have to replace the unit due to effort involved and have matching units 
for depth and speed that work just fine.  No luck on flea bay or consignment 
shops for a direct replacement.

 

One suggestion was to try one the new Airmar WX series transducers for NMEA 2000

 

Any thoughts??
