Combined
VHF/GPS Antenna for AIS
This compact
antenna is a combined VHF and GPS antenna in one marine
housing. Installing the antennas for an AIS Class B onboard
can be some work: both a GPS antenna and a VHF antenna are
required. As, esp. on sailing yachts, it is often difficult
to find a suitable place for the VHF antenna (the masthead
is already occupied by the antenna for the VHF radio, and
at least 80 cm horizontal clearance from this antenna is
necessary), we have developed a two-in-one antenna at a
very attractive price.
|
Installation:
Installation is quick and simple. With two 5 m cables
the antenna can be mounted on the rail or pushpit
of a yacht or cabin top of a motor boat. Although
obviously the pushpit does not offer the same antenna
height as the masthead, it is plenty enough for the
purposes of AIS, where maximum range is not required,
as ships in the vicinity are those that present the
highest danger.
A stainless
steel mount for standard marine rails is also available
for 9,99 Euro.
This antenna
is specially suited for AIS Class B Transponders and
for AIS receivers with build-in GPS. This dual antenna
helps to keep installation costs low and to make installation
easier.
