This is the new class D VHF from Furuno. It's a very nice new model, which can front fix easily, has a large backlit screen, built-in GPS (or you can feed in an external feed if desired), built-in loudhailer, built-in AIS receiver, a longer than normal handset cable which is handy rather than stretching the cable too much and you can easily set specific channels to scan instead of scanning all channels. You can also add a 5m (or 10m) extension cable and remote handset to allow a second location, saves having to fit another aerial and vhf set in the second location.

 

The Ultimate 5-in-1 Tool

VHF Radio, GPS, AIS, Loud Hailer, NMEA2000 and DSC Calling

Features
  • Everything needed for hailing and calling in one unit
  • Built-in GPS built-in high-sensitivity 72 channels GPS with internal antenna which eliminates external GPS antenna and its wiring requirements. 
  • Built-in AIS receiver. Can be used to receive AIS data using the one vhf aerial. When connected to an MFD or Chart Plotter that can read and display AIS data, the built-in AIS receiver will guarantee your safety at sea by providing all the data you need for situational awareness and collision avoidance.
  • Loud Hailer - 15 W PA/Loud Hailer having 8 automatic fog/warning signals and a listen-back capability allowing for two-way communication.
