the best way to guarantee

communication on board.
The VHF radio is a simplex/semi duplex VHF radio. It is designed with an easy-
to-use menu-driven setup. You use the soft-keys and the keypad to enter the
desired functions, you browse and select a setting using the right selection
wheel knob. The large display can be customized for optimum readability and
visibility both day and night with several color themes.
The VHF radio can replay the last 240 s of received voice messages. This is a

the radio is unattended.
With SAILOR connection boxes the VHF radio connects easily to external
