Nasa Marine wind masthead unit - yiannis - 2023-03-06

Hi,
Anybody has managed to get one (doesn't matter which, wired or wireless) of the NASA Marine wind masthead units talk to SignalK without using any of their interface boxes or display units?

Any tips or tricks?

Basically, I trying to get a cheap masthead unit that will talk to SignalK.

TIA
Yiannis

How about this one:

Works perfectly with SingnalK. I ordered the fully assembled PCB, and had the parts printed locally. 

Regards,
Tobias

Hi Tobias,

I saw it last night. Where can I get the assembled PCB from? How much did it cost you to have it printed (roughly, so I can get an idea).

Thanks,

The first question, I suppose is what is the cost/price.

If it's worth it (the money saving from an off the shelf product) then yes I would be interested.

I found the PCB on Aisler, but I didn't see anywhere the assembled board or any link for it.

UPDATE:

I found a fairly cheap Nasa Marine head mast unit on Ebay and I am expecting it to arrive by post. I will let you know how it goes.
