Stus-List Standard Horizon GX2200

Currently I just day-sail with minimal electronics (VHF, GPS, and cellphone - all hand-held) but am looking to do some coastal cruising (US Southeast) within the next year. I am looking at the GX2200 as a nice addition. The GPS Store has it for $300 plus a $40 mail in rebate. http://www.thegpssto

Stus-List What's a Loud Hailer?

Sort of a companion thread to my GX2200 post. Is a loud hailer used to audibly state one's position - or else, maybe to shout, "Hey you, get outta the way!". Is an additional speaker needed, e.g. http://www.thegpsstore.com/Standard-Horizon-MLS-310-External-Speaker-Black-P3035.aspx Never been in the

Re: Stus-List Vessel Documentation

My boat was documented by its previous owners but there's no value for me to keep doing so. I daysail in Florida and pay the annual <$5 antique vessel state registration fee. I only carry liability insurance. If Ox sinks, I'll cry for a day and get another boat to sail and work on. --Bob Moriarty

Stus-List Testing DSC

Today I received my first grown-up radio, a Standard Horizon GX2200. DSC looks like a very nice technology but I am wondering how to test/learn it without triggering a bunch of false alarms or general chaos. I'm docked in a backwater, but there is occasional barge traffic that probably has AIS tran

Re: Stus-List Testing DSC

Hello All, Thanks for the replies. I am aware of the need to get an MMSI number and will be starting that process shortly. I'm uncertain at this time whether to get the quick and free BoatUS MMSI number or to go the slow, federal, not-free route - which would mean the DSC stuff could be used in no

Stus-List MMSI Number Assigning Authority (USA and Canada)

Just read the nice BoatUS MMSI FAQ. https://www.boatus.com/mmsi/faq.asp As I understand it, both Canadian and US boaters have a choice for quick-easy-free MMSI number assignment (by Industry Canada or BoatUS) or a slower, not-free gov't issued MMSI number (which ends in a zero). Non-gov't issued

Stus-List Replacement Depth Transducer

My original depth transducer and display have given up the ghost. Is there a preferred, non-proprietary depth transducer that can output NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000 depth messages? Looking to buy a Standard Horizon CPN700i chartplotter, http://www.standardhorizon.com/indexVS.cfm?cmd=DisplayProducts&Pr

Re: Stus-List Replacement Depth Transducer

Hi Joel, It's unclear, from the manual, whether the GPS info must come into the Standard Horizon (SH) CP155C chartplotter via the connection to an external GPS antenna (the typical setup) or whether it could alternatively come in via the NMEA 0183 inbound wire in the Power and NMEA cable (which I
