Hello,
I have two questions.
1. What is the typical range to see AIS with the antenna on a 17meter mast? I understand you might be able to see class A AIS a bit further as they use 12.5 watts. With class B using 2. Im currently only seeing targets 3nm away or less. My VSRW is 1
6. I have changed the antenna but still seems to be 3nm.
2. When connecting the AIS 700 to a E80 in order to enable slient mode is there a way to connect the wires to the chart plotter to do this or do you need to use an external swtich?
