C80 MFD / RD218 Radar Problem

[charris]

Thanks for your input Chuck. Got the scanner today, there was water in it, drained it, dried it, seems the drain screw was tight. When we loosened it about half a cup of water came out of the radome. There is a fair bit of surface corrosion (shows as white patches on exposed metal) but all connections appeared good. We released them all and used contact cleaner on all. Unfortunately no change in response. We have done a check with full power and no change. Will see what I can find in the way of a cable check in this forum. I also have access to another C80 classic MFD, so will use that to see if any change.

Can you confirm that if the scanner does indeed need replacement and I wish to go new, that I can purchase a new Raymarine digital radar c/w cable that will interface properly to the C80 MFD with version 5.16 software installed?
