I purchased the GA 27C Low Profile Antenna for use with my StreetPilot 2720. The manual says (p. 20), "Connect the antenna to the connector located on the back of the unit."

I can't find a connector on the back of the unit to save my life. Can anyone tell me where it is? There is no obvious place to connect the antenna anywhere on the unit, as far as I can see. There appears to be a hinged cover on the back of the unit, but nothing about this is mentioned in the manual, so I assume it's for servicing.

Great, easy to use unit. The manual is the worst! No talk about how to use it with the enclose software, either.

Thanks much.

John

On the back of the unit, just above the mini-USB socket, is a weather cap. Pull the tag and the External Antenna MCX socket should be behind it.

The 2720 information page is here, and if you click on Manuals then you can download the User Guide and Quickstart Guides. The latter gives some very basic software instructions.

Boy, am I a knucklehead! I had the USB cover off, too. I finally went back to the manual last night and saw the rubber weather gasket opens on its other end, as well.

Embarassed

Thanks!
