RS40 VHF Radio with AIS

Stay safe and maintain clear communication on the water with the RS40 VHF marine radio, a sleek and versatile solution for both recreational and professional boaters. This radio features a removable fist mic for convenient use, Class D DSC functionality for automated distress signaling, and a built-in GPS receiver to ensure accurate location tracking in any situation. Its integrated dual-channel AIS receiver allows you to monitor the positions of nearby AIS-equipped vessels, helping to prevent collisions in crowded harbors and waterways. AIS information can be viewed directly on the RS40 screen or overlaid on compatible multifunction displays for enhanced situational awareness.

The RS40 also offers flexible connectivity, allowing you to add up to two optional wireless handsets, which enable communication from anywhere on board while duplicating the radio's display and controls. Additional features include Track Buddy, which automatically requests and monitors the position of another VHF radio by MMSI, and Navigation Mode with a Man Overboard function that records your current location and guides you back to it. With its combination of safety, navigation, and communication tools, the RS40 VHF marine radio provides reliable performance and peace of mind for every boating adventure.

Features:

• GPS 4-Ways: With the integrated GPS receiver, the RS40 now has four ways to ensure you have a GPS fix in the event of an emergency.
• Built-in AIS: A dual-channel AIS receiver monitors the position of nearby AIS-equipped vessels, helping you to avoid collisions in crowded harbours and waterways. ​AIS information can be viewed on the RS40's built-in screen, or overlaid on your chart or radar screen through a compatible multifunction display. 
• Wireless Handset: Add up to two optional wireless handsets to take your radio anywhere on board. The HS40 handset was designed as an intuitive portable companion to the RS40. ​Each handset duplicates your radio's display and controls, enabling remote access to all key functions. ​Having multiple stations also allows the RS40 to double as a handy on-board intercom.
• Track Buddy: Track Buddy is a feature that automatically requests the position of another VHF radio. Enter the MMSI of the VHF into your contact list, then start tracking!
• Navigation Mode: Press the NAV button on the RS40 to turn it into a navigational instrument that displays your Speed and Course.​ RS40 also contains a Man Overboard (MOB) function, hold down the NAV/MOB button to drop a waypoint on your current location and the RS40 will enter MOB mode to show you how far away you are and where you need to steer to get back to the position of the MOB event. The MOB waypoint is also transmitted over NMEA 2000 to the rest of your network.​
