The M12 boards arrived today, but there is a small problem with them.  The holes for the receiver 2x5 .050 spaced pins are too small.  The Furuno pins measure around .003" wider than the Motorola pins (that fit, rather tightly) so probably also some PCB  drill hole/plating tolerance issues.  Next spin of the boards will have the holes .006" wider.
