Yes, I have one bought on Ebay. Now surplus to requirements as it has a BNC
connector.
Another one here, but it will have ended by the time you see it.

They dont have an official UK Distributor. What is it you are after as
there are many European manufacturers with solutions that match Gilssons?

Thanks, Brian, for your suggestions

Darren, I have a Garmin GPSmap 60Cx and I use it mainly in woodland. I want
to see if accuracy is improved with an external antenna. Gilsson was
suggested in another NG.

Have you considered Garmins own external antenna, the GA 25MCX?

The Garmin site deserves a nomination of the most useless pile of shite
still online.

No mention of this model as far as I can tell, nor does it appear to
show either the GA 26C or GA 27C it says is compatible with other GPS
units with MCX connectors...

No new posts WTD: MCX-to-anything cable, please (preferably for postage only, as just for experimenting with DIY antennas!)
