Nate Some of the newer Std Horizon VHF have AIS receivers and can be hooked to chartplotter.
We have Standard Horizon Matrix AIS+ VHF model GX2150 and a Garmin GPSMAP740. AIS is available on the 740 using the VHF receiver Mike Persistence Halifax From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Nate Flesness via CnC-List Sent: Wednesday, June 24, 2015 9:59 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: Nate Flesness Subject: Stus-List Chartplotter choice when you want to simply add AIS to the display? West has a few day sale on Garmin and Raymarine chartplotters with the new hi res sonars. I'm a newbie to most marine electronics. I have 20 year old Raymarine instruments, and no plans to connect to charplotter. On Lake Superior, AIS tells you where the freighters are, and GPS where the land is, and you don't worry very much about running into another sailor out in the "lake" - the one thing radar adds when its foggy.. Several friends got AIS and likely will not add radar.. I like to sail and mess with boats - but I prefer to leave the computer programming stuff for work. Any thoughts on the simplicity of adding an AIS receiver to the display on a Raymarine Dragonfly 7, or to Garmin Echomap 74dv? Thanks Nate Sarah Jean 1980 30-1 and 1994 Tartan 31
