I used the wrong word.
Not antenna. GPS receiver.
I want to use the one I have (on the rail in the cockpit, with 20+ feet of cable already running to the Nav Station) to hook into my G4 Mac, with new ENC software. I need to have a way to connect the BNC bayonet thing to a short adapter with USB at the other end which will, of course, link receiver to Mac G4.
The goal here is to move the smaller, waterproof Garmin GPS MAP 220 (no longer made, but works great) out to the helm, with both systems running off the same receiver (T-joint will run some of my excess cable up the binnacle to where I'll put the G220.
Thanks for responding.
The boat, BTW, is a classic plastic T41 (Lochaber). See her at www.sailtartan.blogspot.com
