Simple installation and use of GPS
GX1850E Explorer GPS is the simplicity of using GPS - the ability to receive SBAS satellites (WAAS / EGNOS / MSAS / GAGAN). With the 66 channel GPS receiver built into the front panel of the radio, there is no unnecessary clutter with the installation cables between the radio and GPS for DSC. Always ready to use - DSC call, position position, sailing to landmark, sailing to DSC emergency call - a few simple steps and you'll reach your goal.
Installing the VHF radio has never been easier. The Explorer GPS has an ultra thin back of the case, only 82 mm deep, which is half the depth of comparable VHF radios available on the market.
The built-in GPS receiver and the antenna mounted in the front panel of the radio also give the possibility of multiple flexible embedding of the radio in places with limited space.
ITU-R M493-13 Class D DSC (Digital Selective Calling)
Explorer has ITU-R M493 class D VHF with a separate receiver channel 70, which allows you to receive calls in distress DSC, regardless of which channel you are listening on. The DSC DISTRESS function, when activated, transmits the MAYDAY digital signal containing vessel identification, latitude/longitude and time (with GPS connected). Possible additional calls - Individual, Emergency, Security, Position Report, Sent. Additional features, including calling DSC test and menu selection for enabling the Auto DSC channel.
Optional RAM4 microphone
When you need to control VHF remotely from the captain's cockpit - use the RAM4 SSM-70H remote microphone to control all VHF and DSC functions as well as an intercom. This microphone can be installed at a maximum distance of 7 m from the radio, as well as in a separate cabin (the optional CT-100 cable is required when extending the microphone cable).
Large clear display
No doubt - having a large clear display at your disposal, you will not make any mistake while reading information. Contrast and brightness can be adjusted to the current situation, especially when it is not possible to mount the radio directly in front of the user.
User Programmable Scanning, Priority Scanning and Dual Watch
Scanning is not a problem for Explorer. The radio can be set to scan any number of channels with or without channel 16 as the priority or set the scan between the priority channel and another channel (double listening).
Noise reduction technology
Explorer was built based on noise reduction technology that eliminates background noise such as engine or wind during broadcasting. This ensures that the broadcast will be crystal clear for dedicated 16/9, H / L buttons and channel selection.
Sailing to designated landmarks
EXPLORER has the ability to enter and save up to 100 landmarks. These points can be selected and designated for navigation using a unique navigation compass displaying SOG, COG, BRG and DST.
