schumacher Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 Hello, I'm going to buy F500BT and install it in-dash of my car but i'm afraid it would affect to gps signal. So, Does AVIC-F500BT have external gps antenna? If yes where i can buy it? Thank you very much. Link to post Share on other sites
stereoinstaller1 Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 I called Pioneer about this, they said it did...but an odd connector. The tech told me where to get it, but I figured I would cobble something together. My 500 should be here tuesday. Link to post Share on other sites
stereoinstaller1 Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 I know this is an old post, but figured I would answer anyway. Yes,the F500 has both external antenna and external microphone ports. Both work wonderfully. The antenna connector is MMCX. I highly recommend getting a straight connector,the right angle I got is a PITA. The Mic is 2.5mm, same as other Pioneer mics. Mine now works wonderfully. Luke Link to post Share on other sites
miotoo Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 EDIT: It is more likely to be the MCX connector which is larger in diameter. I have a gps antenna with mmcx connector which fits my mio unit and the F500BT is actually larger and won't fit. I think our unit is not MMCX. Did you get a connector and fit it yourself?
