Whitey Says: The Oricom MX1100G VHF Marine Radio with built-in GPS receiver is a vital tool for communication and safety while on the water. With an IPX7 rating and Class B Digital Selective Calling (DSC), this radio is ideal for all types of boating, from offshore to inland waters.
The MX1100G also complies with national regulations and has a dedicated DSC receiving channel, making it a versatile and reliable choice. The DSC feature uses a digital data message to transmit urgent information to other radios, ensuring it is heard even if a vessel's listening watch is not being maintained.
The built-in GPS receiver allows for precise location tracking, adding an extra layer of safety to your boating experience. It is important to have the GPS antenna installed in an unobstructed location for optimal satellite signal reception.
