[Public-List] VHF, DSC and GPS

[GLENN P via Public-List]

   My garmin chart plotter had nema capacity , which was very nice as i
   could integrate GPS and separate AIS vessel tracking on the chart
   plotter, or on a big digital screen on the bulkhead.  Nowadays you
   could send everything to your iPad!
   I also had one of the horizon vhf units but didn't like it at all.
   Never could transmit without some kind of squelch kicking in.  Never
   did figure out how to resolve that.
