Hi mark & all
It is a 9390-52023 with a LCD & led indicators. I haven't opened it and peeked to see what kind of oscillator is in it yet. I will take a look inside tomorrow. Does anyone know what the part number breaks down too?

I'm guessing when it was removed someone cut the antenna coax. It still has 4.5v dc on the antenna port but never sees any satellites. This device uses oncore gps module. Does anyone know if a) if I replace said oncore module will it actually work & b) is there anything goofy they did with the antennas on these units?  & c) is it possible they blew the front end of the oncore?  I'm using a trimble bullet antenna with both devices
