+teepeeayy Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 Anyone have experience with thix carrying case? I'd like to know if there is an opening on the back for either an external antenna or power source. Quote
+benjamin921 Posted February 28, 2005 Posted February 28, 2005 No. I just emailed them and the only opening would be for the beltclip screw. Nice looking case though. Quote
+kingquad Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 very nice case,....I was actualy looking for one liek that which we can still use the gps inside THE CASE......it's probably not too hard to make a small hoel in it yourself,....I might try Quote
+Klatch Posted March 2, 2005 Posted March 2, 2005 Check out this case. I have one for my 76CS and I can use an external antenna (with the right angle connector) by running the cable out the bottom with the zipper almost closed. You can also use the gps while in the case. Quote
+wrencher Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 I bought one of these cases and its a pain to get on and off its to tight .In fact I need to send my 60 cs in for repair because the 4 way rocker ended up loose and sloppy after removing it. Quote
+CompuCash Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 (edited) Odd about getting it off the GPS - mine works great. The one odd thing I found is that there is a hole for the joystick button in the vinyl cover. It is easy to get off if you run your finger in between the screen and the vinyl cover - then slides right out. The smooth vinyl sticks to the smooth screen and THAT is hard to slide against. There is NO reason you can't use either a straight or right angle antenna connector with the case on. You only have to move a small corner of the case out of the way - just a litle - to open the rubber port and use the connectorl I have a legend sitting here right next to my 60CS - there is NO way a 60 will fit in a case for the Legend. The photo shown in the link provided above. Ahh... after re-reading that IS what the above writer meant - he put the 60 in the Legend case - ya! no wonder it was tight!! The 60 is 50% larger! --------- have to ammend the above - I did not notice that the link was for the sharkskin case - I have the Neoprene case. There is no top - just a nice fitting 'enveolope'. There is no opening for the screw - there is a dip in the case that goes below the belt clip post. So there may be some differences in the cases of different materials. If you want to use an external antenna suggest you get the Neoprene one as it would be very easy. I did not connect mine just now - it is just so easy. cc Edited March 3, 2005 by CompuCash Quote
