Antenna for ST 6001+ Autopilot

RE: Antenna for ST 6001+ Autopilot
I guess I will need to crawl below and figure out where the cable goes. I originally thought that it was the GPS antenna for the Pathfinder R70, which I replaced, but then was told it was needed for the autopilot. I have just left it mounted on the rail and it would have remained there, but for my desire to put it on my antenna pole. So I assume from your email, the autopilot is using the same internal antenna as the C140W, if its needs an antenna at all. I guess I could lock in a course and not care the location of the boat? This would make it work independent of the MFD, but the MFD would make the adjustment to get me to a waypoint. I have considered mounting an external antenna for the MFD, but so far I have had no issues with the internal antenna, but now having a good location to mount it above the bimini makes it more appealing.
