Radio Hour
Standard Horizon’s GX2200 MATRIX AIS/GPS radio features a built-in, 66-channel antenna on the front panel, so sailors don’t have to wire the radio to the GPS for digital selective calling or AIS. The nifty features don’t stop there. It’s equipped with position sharing, waypoint navigation, and has a CPA alarm that alerts you when an AIS-enabled ship is approaching too close for comfort. The AIS system can also request and send latitude and longitude coordinates to compatible GPS plotters, which is handy when you’re cruising with other boats. The GX2200 is durable, has noise-cancelling microphones and can save up to 100 waypoints, as well as a wide variety of other features you’ll want access to while you’re on board. $349.99.
