Greetings gentlemen,
Can anyone advise if there are any
AIS transponders integral with
VHF radios on the market. I need to replace my old Standard Horizon
VHF radio, which is shot, and I wanted to see if I could get one with an
AIS transponder built in. I didn't want the hassle of
fishing another wire through the
radar arch for a new
antenna.
If there is nothing like that available yet, I would like a recommendation for a separate AIS transponder which I could use with a splitter. My other self-imposed requirement is that they are
NMEA 2000, as I will be hooking the
radio and AIS up to my
Garmin 741xs plotter.
Thank you.
Joe
