Default Looking for Lowrance 2000c

All,

I am looking to buy a used Airmap 2000c to use as a VFR GPS up in Maine. Anyone have a unit they want to offload?

Thanks
Mark

Default 2000C Updates

I just checked the LEI Extras website and they now list a jeppesen database update. The price has gone up and it appears you can't download it now, they send you an SD card. There is a $10 shipping fee for that little bitty card according to LEI.
Maybe it's not the 28 day update, there are no dates listed.

Great, I have a new panel cut, painted, and labeled just waiting to install after the beautiful fall flying weather. Maybe I shouldn't waste me time. The 2000C is to be installed in the panel in front of the pilot. I tried updating this summer and could not get it to work.

I went to the link earlier today and found the America database update and the (other one - can't remember - international???). I ordered the America database for $49 + 10 shipping. Got a confirmation number - haven't checked to see if my credit card was charged yet. I just checked the same site and the aviation databases are not listed in the store anymore.

Wow! I just checked again and they're gone! Only fishing maps and a cover, plus an external power cord for cig lighters. Time to get serious about getting a new GPS!

Thumbs up Good News?

Yesterday, I submitted the following question to Lowrance Tech Support:

"How soon will you once more offer database updates for the Lowrance Airmap 500, 600C, 2000C, etc.? Thank You."

Today, I received the following response:

"Thank you for contacting us.

Please visit www.lei-extras.com to purchase the database updates after 10.21.10.

Please feel free to contact us if we may be of further assistance.

Good News?

Bill Palmer
