DSC VHF radio

Flexibility has been key in the design of the GX600D. Its features, such as impressive size, IP67 waterproof rating, colour choice, range of mounting and second station options, set the GX600D apart from the competition.

Standard equipment on the GX600D is a full-function keypad microphone with an extremely simple 'mobile phone style' operating system, ensuring operators of every skill level can access the full benefit of the radio's extensive feature list.

The 25 W GME GX600D, however, goes well beyond this basic safety requirement and when interfaced with a GPS receiver will be able to transmit crucial vessel information, including position and the nature of the distress call whether it be fire, flooding, collision, grounding, capsize, sinking, adrift, abandoning, piracy or man overboard. In an emergency, one push of the 'red button' will send an automated digital distress alert containing your position and Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) number to rescue facilities (where available) and other DSC-equipped vessels in the area.

The GX600D DSC radio also provides boaters with a valuable range of non-emergency capabilities, permitting communication with another boat or group of boats using individual or group MMSI numbers. If interfaced to a GPS-equipped chart plotter, the radio can send, receive and display each vessel's position as well.
