Description
Integrated AIS and GPS Receivers A dual-channel AIS receiver monitors the position of nearby AIS-equipped vessels, helping you to avoid collisions in crowded harbours and waterways. AIS information can be viewed on the V60’s built-in screen, or overlaid on your chart or radar screen through a compatible multifunction display. An integrated GPS receiver ensures your yacht’s location can be sent with DSC distress calls, even if the rest of your on-board electronics are powered down.
Removable Fist Mic The V60’s removable fist mic can be connected to the front or rear of the radio, and optional extension cables allow the radio and mic to be mounted separately. This offers a simple and cost-effective solution for any mounting location, with no cable clutter. For example, the V60 can be mounted overhead, with no hanging cables, while the mic is connected to an extension socket on the dash below.
Expandable with Wireless Handsets Add an optional wireless handset to take your radio anywhere on board. The H60 handset was designed as an intuitive portable companion to the V60. Each handset duplicates your radio’s display and controls, enabling remote access to all key functions. Up to two wireless handsets can be connected to a single base station. With multiple handsets connected, the V60 doubles as a handy on-board intercom.
