1.1 VHF radio with DSC
SAILOR 6215/6216 VHF DSC, your new SAILOR
VHF radio with full DSC functionality, is
approved to R&TTE and is waterproof to the IPx8
and IPx6 standard. As part of the required safety
equipment, use the SAILOR 6215/6216 VHF DSC
in an emergency situation. However the best way
to guarantee functionality in an emergency
situation, is to use the radio in daily
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 to enter
the desired functions, you browse and select a setting using the right selection wheel knob.
The large display has red adjustable backlight which provides a good visibility even at night
and protects your night vision.
The VHF radio can replay the last 90 s of received voice. This is a useful feature to minimize
misunderstandings and to record messages when the radio is unattended.
The VHF radio connects easily to external equipment like a 2-way loudhailer and an
external speaker. You can use the loudhailer as a 2-way on-board communicator. The
loudhailer also functions as a fog horn. You can select from several programmed fog-horn
patterns.
