Welcome to the Panbo Marine Technology Forums.
This is a Simrad Robertson AP11 autopilot system that may be about 20 years old, but was working fine when I took it off Gizmo about 10 years ago. It consists of two AP11 control heads and the J3000X Junction Unit that controlled the solenoid on the boat's hydraulic steering system. Here is the manual that explains how it was set up and what it could do:

This system worked well as a standalone autopilot with NMEA 0183 input/output, but is probably most valuable now as spare parts to keep an existing AP11 (or similar) system alive. You can have it all for $700, which compares well to the only used AP11 control head I can find on EBay, and that includes a 30 day moneyback guarantee so you can assure yourself that it's all in running condition.
By the way, I think it's great that Ben Stein has just established a free classified section on the Forum.

Hi.
I have been looking for the AP11 for over a year.
So I hope you will sell one of your AP11 unit!!
I had water in the main pcb, and the results was electric short-circuit. I got a repaired unit from Belgiq. But the AP11 was also defective.
I can pay by PayPal, the price you demand.
So then I\m still without an operational autopilot.

Holy cow, I feel dumb because I somehow hadn't noticed all these messages until now! So, Antoine, the whole AP11 kit is yours if you still want it, and, Harald, I'll let you know if one AP11 control is still available.
@harald-a-e Sorry, it looks like Antoine is buying the whole set (and is actually looking for another AP11 control head). Thanks for your interest, and you'll be first to hear if this sale falls apart in some way.
Hi Ben.
Thank`s for your feedback. Good to hear that you have me in your mind 😉 .
Best regards from Harald A.Eriksen
