An Easy to Use Radio for Any Vessel
See clearly in bright daylight with a high contrast black-on-white
display, and inverted white-on-black night mode. A rotary dial makes channel
selection easy, while large buttons provide quick access to other key
functions. Dedicated Channel 16 keys, found on both the radio and its fist
microphone, offer instant access to the emergency channel. An included gimbal
bracket enables simple table-top, overhead, or bulkhead installation.
Flush-mount installation is also possible, with an easy mount-from-front
solution, to match the low-profile style of our glass bridge displays and
accessories.
Class D DSC Approved
DSC, or “Digital Selective Calling”, makes it easier to stay in touch
with other boaters and enables you to broadcast your boat’s location during an
emergency. If you find yourself in trouble, the V20S's dedicated “distress”
button will initiate a DSC distress call that sends your boat’s position to
anyone within VHF range. Used together with a traditional radio distress call,
this makes it easier for other boaters with DSC-capable radios to register
your situation and come to your aid. An integrated GPS receiver means your
position can be sent even if your boat’s other electronics are powered down.
Easy Access to All International Channels
The V20S is designed for global use and supports all international
channels. With tri-channel watch, easily scan between the current channel,
emergency channel 16, and another user-configurable priority channel (in the
USA, scan between the current channel, emergency channel 16, and calling
channel 9). Alternatively, scan through all available channels or just your
selected favourites. Emergency channels can be given priority when scanning to
reduce the chance of missing distress calls or other urgent safety messages.
