A fixed VHF radio with an internal AIS receiver and loudhailer capabilities. The marine VHF radio has an intuitive design with oversized controls and a big screen, plus supports the optional wired or wireless RayMic controllers for true multi-station control and intercom capability. Connect the VHF radio to an optional hailing horn, and it can generate automatic fog signals, plus work as a public address announcement system.

Key Features:

Audio output connection for optional passive remote speaker.
Built-in GNS/GPSS receiver with connection point for an optional external antenna.
Fog signalling and public address functions with optional hailing horn.
Internal AIS receiver provides target data for chartplotter, radar and instruments.
NMEA2000 and NMEA0183 networking for integration with onboard systems.
Styled to compliment the Raymarine Axiom family of chartplotter displays.
Surface and trunnion mount kits included.
Wired or wireless expansion with optional RayMic handset stations.
