Raytheon R20X Radome

[Paleyma]

Hi, I have an ageing Raytheon radar, which was working fine until recently. Now, it comes up with a "Bearing Pulse Error" message when you press Transmit. Reading the manual, I think this is because the scanner isn't rotating (confirmed by taking the lid off the radome & rotating the scanner by hand).

I took it back to Raymarine in Portsmouth who told me it was likely a fault with the ships heading sensor unit within the radome, which they no longer stock.

I may be clutching at straws but I am faced with a big bill if I need to replace my radar. Does anyone have a working R20X radome they need to get rid of?

Many Thanks

I have or will soon have a Raytheon r20X as part of a package deal of navigation equipment I am getting. I am a bit hesitant to install the radar because of its age, but it works fine as far as I know. It is still on his boat now.
