I've used the same GPS puck since S&T 2004. I believe all the MS units are NEMA protocol, and should work with any version of the software. The newer locators use updated chip sets, and are more sensitive.

Note, however, that the 2007 GPS receiver was a substantial upgrade from the 2006 receiver. You can certainly make do with a 2006, but you may want to try and buy a better GPS receiver off eBay.
