AIS Receivers & Accessories
SLR200 & SLR100
AIS receivers
We
recommend the SLR200 AIS receiver for professional quality performance
in reception of AIS data for fitting to Ships, Yachts, Fishing and
commercial vessels, harbours and port networks. The SLR200 listens
continuously on both AIS VHF channel frequencies, for maximum
performance and capture of all AIS transmissions within range. We recommend the SLR100 AIS receiver for good quality performance in reception of AIS data for fitting to Yachts, Fishing and commercial vessels. The SLR100 listens on one of the AIS VHF channel frequencies at a time and automatically switches to the other channel every minute. For even better updating and reception we recommend the SLR200 AIS receiver, but the performance of the SLR100 is excellent when fitted to small vessels, and at a lower price. 
Installation: Technical Information: The
SLR100 is a compact single channel synthesized VHF receiver designed to
receive and decode transmissions from vessels fitted with Class
“A” AIS transceivers. The
receiver automatically switches between the AIS VHF frequency channels
every one minute, so that both frequencies are covered.
