Thanks Dennis. I was hoping I could plug and play a new [old] Multi into my system but it is looking like that is not feasible. I may need to drag my boat out of the 1990’s "0183” electronics world… at least partially with some new displays and the GND 10. Staying with the 43 mm transducers would save drilling larger holes in the hull… Will have to spend some time reading / researching.
Has anyone installed / used the new Garmin instruments – particularly the GNX 20 Marine instrument? It appears this system does not require a “server” like the old system did, so would guess GPS data is input directly.

Last one I got I bought off eBay. There are no commercial sources for the Nexus Classic multicontrols. The 43 mm transducers are readily available. Garmin sells some upgrades (GNX 20) but you need to really check compatibility. http://www.nexusmarine.se/support/historic-products/repairable-products/ By the time you buy a couple of new displays, you've spent as much as a new system. https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/598224#box The above doesn't include a server and may not be backwards compatible. Might as well just go all new: https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/602308 Be advised the new comes with 52 mm transducers. The classic system uses 43 mm transducers. Dennis C.

Either Nexus Classic or NX2? Both of my old Multi Classic displays are getting hard to read due to crazing in the plexi [they both have suffered through contact with errant winch handles] trapped moisture, and the buttons tend to stick when pressed.

I have Nexus Classic instruments with a NMEA 0183 multiplexer with USB port. Not sure I have a PC with an old enough version of Windows. Thinking there are other programs out there that have same or better functionality. Dennis C.
