Thank you, gentlemen.

The GPS I most want is unavailable, to date, with an internal antenna. The
external antenna will be mounted less than two feet from the receiver but
has about a thirty foot cable. I prefer not to have this cable wadded up
beneath my center console. Thanks to you, I believe I can safely shorten
the cable.

I'll double check with Lowrance but plan to do it unless it will void the
warranty.

I cut 2 meter off mine and gave it a new bnc plug. No problem.

It's a Garmin.

What are the ramifications of shortening the cable by cutting and
spliceing? I've heard conflicting advice.

Thanks.
