I've installed this in the "e-box" below the fiberglass top on a center console. The built-in GPS antenna works fine in that location. I like the splitter because I didn't want to install a second antenna. It is literally plug and play. There is an iphone app (connects via WiFi - the bluetooth does work with iOS) that allows you to switch the transmit on and off, so if that function is of interest, there is no need to install a physical switch. My only complaint is the size and length of the 12-wire power/data cable. I would have preferred a 2 or 4-wire power cable that I could shorten, as I don't need NMEA 0183 capability. But that would require a bigger box, and I really like the small size of this box. Literally every other piece of electronic equipment on my boat is Simrad (2 MFDs, VHF, sat. compass, auto pilot, radar), but the Simrad box is just too big and this is a more capable unit. It integrates perfectly with the MFDs over NMEA 2000, and targets show up on the charts. This has been a great unit so far, and I would highly recommend it.
Milltech was great to deal with. They followed up with me by email right after I placed the order and explained when I would receive it. Highly responsive! I highly recommend them, as well. The only downside for me is that they are on the West Coast, and I'm on the East, so shipping takes a few days. But I would order from Milltech again in a heartbeat.
