Overview
Garmin has as wide array of GPS products. At this time I offer only
the simple GPS receiver below. The Garmin GPS 35-HVS was popular with
SN10 owners because it was small and ran on 12V power. However, it is
no longer available. The GPS 16-HVS is a very good substitute.
It is much less expensive and is a WAAS compatible receiver. It also
runs on 12V. The only downside to the GPS 16-HVS is that it is a bit
larger than the GPS35.

Garmin GPS 16-HVS
This is a great, simple GPS for soaring applications. I like
it because it can be powered with 12 VDC and does not have a
magnet built into it (like many small GPS units do). It is WAAS compatible.
It works very nicely with the ILEC SN-10b
because the SN-10b can power the GPS16-HVS. When ordered with an
SN-10b you can have the GPS16-HVS connected to the SN10's panel cable for $59.
A quick-disconnect connector is used to make it easy to route the GPS
cable through small openings.
The GPS16-HVS comes with a cable with
an RJ45 (Ethernet) connector. It can be ordered with an optional
DB-9f connector for use with a Pocket PC. The DB-9f connector
plugs directly into a Goddard PS-5a power converter. The PS-5a
provides 12V power for the GPS16-HVS and 5V power for the Pocket PC.
Connector Options
- No Connector, the customer must
connect the +12 VDC power, common and transmit lines. (standard)
- DB-9f, a standard connector for use
with a Goddard PS-5a power converter and a Pocket PC. $19.95
- ILEC SN-10b panel cable, The
customer's ILEC SN-10b panel cable is modified to connect the GPS
16-HVS
to the SN-10b. The SN-10b provides 12V power for the GPS. $39 for Modification + $59 for SN-10 Panel Cable =
$98

SN10b-Pnl-PS5a-GPS16-x
cable, This cable is used to connect the GPS16-HVS to both an SN-10b
and a Pocket PC. It replaces the SN-10 Panel Cable that comes
with the SN-10. $119
Whatever your application, the Garmin®
GPS 16 will deliver the accuracy you need for precise position
reporting. This GPS sensor has an integrated antenna housed in a rugged,
waterproof design.
The 12-channel receiver allows for continuous tracking of all visible
satellites. And it’s WAAS capable, which means it can provide position
accuracy of less than 3 meters. This incredible accuracy is possible
without the use of an external DGPS beacon receiver. The GPS 16 also
offers excellent EMI/RFI performance for easy integration into systems
that will be operated near mobile computing devices and wireless
communications equipment.

Garmin GPS35-HVS TracPak
This is a great, simple GPS for soaring applications. I like
it because it can be powered with 12 VDC and does not have a
magnet built into it (like many small GPS units do). It is not
WAAS compatible but the increase in accuracy available from WAAS
compatible GPS units is not a big advantage for soaring pilots.
It works very nicely with the ILEC SN-10b
because the SN-10b can power the GPS35. When ordered with an
SN-10b can have the GPS35 connected to the ILEC panel cable for $39.
The GPS35-HVS comes with a cable with
bare leads. It can be ordered with an optional DB-9f connector for
use with a Pocket PC. The DB-9f connector plugs directly into a
Goddard PS-5a power converter. The PS-5a provides 12V power for
the GPS35 and 5V power for the Pocket PC.

The Garmin® GPS 35 TracPak is a complete
GPS receiver and embedded antenna designed for a broad spectrum of OEM
(Original Equipment Manufacturers) system applications. Based on the
proven technology found in other Garmin 12–channel GPS receivers, the
GPS 35 will track up to twelve satellites at a time while providing
one-second navigation updates and low power consumption. Its
far-reaching capability meets the sensitivity requirements of land
navigation as well as the dynamics requirements of high-performance
aircraft.
The GPS 35 TracPak design utilizes the latest technology and high-level
circuit integration to achieve superior performance while minimizing
space and power requirements. Utilizing Garmin's own proprietary
chipset, all critical components of the system including the RF/IF
receiver hardware and the digital baseband are designed and manufactured
by Garmin to ensure outstanding quality and capability.
The GPS 35 TracPak is housed in a black, water-resistant case and
designed to withstand rugged operating conditions. While the GPS 35
TracPak is designed as a "plug 'n play" GPS solution, the minimum system
must provide a source of power and a clear view of the GPS satellites.
The system may communicate with the GPS 35 via two RS-232 compatible
bi-directional communication channels. Internal memory backup allows the
GPS 35 to retain critical data such as satellite orbital parameters,
last position, date, and time.
