What about regular GPS Street Nav that is dual use like XP/Linux... Anything out there?
Rugged Toughbooks of all types... CF-31s, CF-30s, CF-29s, CF-19s, CF-52s, CF-53s, CF-74s, CF-H2... Hmmm... What else can I buy, build or modify?

I am doing an OEM GPS install on a CF-18. Does anyone in the forum have the part numbers for the antenna cap and the other parts associated with the install? All I need are the numbers for the parts from the antenna out. Thanks!
One CF-52, four CF-18's, 4.5 CF-28's, one CF-29, five CF-M34's, two CF-37's, one CF-P2 and two CF-P1's. There are also two Getac A320T's, one Fieldpac and two IBM Transnotes. Not to mention the AMD 5600 CPU with three monitors and several HP PDA's. Whew! Must quit buying...no, must have MORE! Then there are the weapons...

I've done a bet progress on Cf-18 gps by using the patch antena at the top fo Lcd. The result is much better than the pocket where the OEM antena located. I just need some finishing or maybe replacing the cover of the antena. It just happened the antena cover came from the body of my mastercraft tool box, Lol.......Teo

Teo, do u think you could cram a patch antenna into one of those wlan antenna covers from the 29? I don't have any antennas around me right now to try it out but I'll try later tonite and let ya'll know how it goes. I have like 20 of these covers and I would like to find a good use for them

The patch antena is to big and when it does. It is easy to break.
