Lowrance Link-6 Fixed Mount DSC VHF Radio White
Description
The Lowrance Link-6 White is the white-finished version of Lowrance's dependable fixed-mount DSC VHF radio, styled to blend with light-coloured helms and consoles. Simple rotary and keypad controls and a removable four-key hand microphone make it easy to operate, and the front-mountable mechanical design keeps installation straightforward where space behind the dash is limited.
With no internal GPS of its own, the Link-6 White is built to draw a position feed from a connected chartplotter or external GPS over NMEA 0183, so a DISTRESS call can carry your identity and location. That link also lets the radio exchange DSC data with a compatible Lowrance display, so the two work as one system at the helm.
It suits a boat already fitted with a Lowrance HDS, Elite FS or Hook plotter, and can be gimbal-bracket or flush mounted to match the install, with a flush mount kit supplied.
