Easy installation
Mounting a VHF radio has never been easier. The Explorer GX1600 has
an ultra-thin, compact rear case, only 3.5” in depth or half the
depth of comparable VHF radios on the market. The rear case design
also gives flexibility when flush mounting the radio in tight areas
or bracket mounting the radio by taking up less dash space, and
allowing more mounting options.
ITU-R M493-11 Class D Digital Selective Calling
The Explorer is an ITU-R M493 Class D class VHF with a separate
Channel 70 receiver, which allows DSC calls to be received even
when listening to communications. The DSC DISTRESS function when
activated transmits a digital MAYDAY including vessel
identification, Latitude / Longitude and time (with GPS connected),
to facilitate prompt response. Additional calls that can be made
are Individual, Urgency, Safety, Position Report and Send.
Additional features include DSC test call and menu selection for
Auto DSC channel switching.
RAM3 second station mic capable
Need to remotely control the VHF from your cockpit of fly bridge?
The Explorer is RAM3 remote mic capable to control all VHF, DSC
functions at a second station.
Big, bold display
There is no question about it. With a big, bold display there is no
mistaking the information. The contrast and brightness can be
adjusted for situations where the radio cannot be mounted directly
in front of you.
Programmable Scan, Priority Scan and Dual Watch
Scanning is not an issue with the EXPLORER. The radio can be setup
to scan any number of channels with or without a Channel 16 as the
priority channel or simply can be setup to scan between a priority
channel and one other channel (dual watch).
Clearvoice noise reduction technology
The Explorer features Clear Voice Noise Reduction Technology
eliminating unwanted background noises like engines and wind during
transmission. This assures transmissions are crystal clear along
with dedicated 16/9, H/L keys and channel selection.
Navigate to Waypoints
The Explorer is capable of entering and saving up to 100 waypoints.
These waypoints may be selected and navigated to by using a unique
navigation compass display that shows your vessels SOG, COG, BRG
(Bearing) and DST (Distance) to the waypoint when connected to an
external GPS.
DSC Position Polling and NMEA in/output
Easily share position information with other DSC equipped vessels
using the position request and position reporting functions. With
the push of a few buttons you can request the position of another
vessel, or simply send your position information to the vessel you
select. The GPS Position of a received DSC Distress or Position
Request call can be shown on a compatible GPS Chart plotter simply
by connecting 2 NMEA wires. In addition, the EXPLORER may be setup
to automatically poll the GPS position of up to 4 stations.
Programmable Channel Names
The Explorer is supplied from the factory preloaded with
description of the use of Marine channels (16-Distress, 22A-USCG,
71-Pleasure...). The channel names may be customized by the user to
easily understand the use of each channel.
