I am replacing a 10 year old GPS external antenna with a new one. The old one died this fall. It is mounted on the stern rail and this is a Hunter 42 center cockpit boat.Can I mount the new antenna and run the cable into the aft cabin and splice it into the old cable so that I don't have to re-run the entire thing and attach a new coupling for it to connect to the GPS?This is a Garmin old and new antenna and the cable that came with the old and new.Anyone done this or have any tips for me?Thanks.
