+--- Thread: Navicom introduces DSC VHF with AIS (/thread-563.html)
- cyberhusky - August 16, 2008
The French company has just introduced a new DSC VHF with integrated AIS receiver.
Plus an external mobile phone like remote control which works up to 200 meters.
I haven't found an English site yet but it looks very promising.
The AIS data can be transferred to any device understanding NMEA streams.
Though I don't know if AIS is a dual band receiver?
The price is interesting too: 449 Euro but I've seen it for 379 Euro too.
