Aerials: GPS. Puck type GPS aerial included, can be used below deck in a GRP boat provided deck material does not attenuate satellite signal unduly.
AIS: an AIS aerial is not included in the box.
Options:
External KA-07 GPS with 10 metres of cable, choice of surface or rail mounts.
AIS aerial: choice of flexible/stubby or stainless whip. Flexible/stubby is particularly suited for low level mounting where a whip type may be vulnerable to damage by crew or the deployment of lines.
Aerials we supply are specifically tuned to 162mHz the frequency of the two AIS channels. We use Low loss RG8X 50-ohm cable which we cut to your specified length. Cable can be supplied with two high quality PL259 connectors fitted or with one only which greatly facilitates installing the cable though tight spaces or a deck fitting. If you choose one end only fitted, the free cable end is prepared using a professional cutting tool so that the second connector can simply be screwed onto the cable and the centre tip soldered – soldering the tip is essential otherwise considerable signal loss will result. In the aerial kit we supply some low melting point solder for the tip together with some heat shrink sleeve to weatherproof the connector and cable joint. In case you don’t have access to a heat gun for the heat shrink, we include some self-amalgamating tape to use in place of the heat shrink.
