The SPECTRUM+ makes it simple for you to exchange position data with a fellow cruiser or fisherman with its POSITION REQUEST or POSITION SEND functions. Should you ever need to notify all of the vessels of a commercial fleet or towing service the GROUP CALL feature makes it simple. MariTEL DSC TELEPHONE_ Working with MarTEL "The Marine Telephone Company" we ^ have included the DSC telephone function that allows you to send and receive telephone calls up to 50 miles from shore. MariTEL offers free calls to towing companies and other benefits when you subscribe to the service. When connected to your GPS position boat receiver the SPECTRUM+ will display time, date, Latitude/Longitude, Speed Over Ground (SOG), and Course Over Ground (COG). Of course the time clock features an offset to compensate for local versus UTC. GPS repeatability insures the accurate and safe transmission of your location in an emergency or when you are attempting to meet a fellow cruiser. CLEAR VOICE™ NOISE CANCELING TECHNOLOGY SPECTRUM+ features a uniquely designed waterproof microphone. Clear Voice, a STANDARD HORIZON innovation, provides the clearest possible transmission, by significantly reducing wind and engine for boats background noise. In addition to its unique noise canceling capabilities, the SPECTRUM+'s microphone features a boat speaker, up/down and 16/9-channel selection. Oeah^ice- SUBMERSIBLE CONSTRUCTION | | | | | | STflNDBV ■ >P0S REQEST | | | | | | 10 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SPECTRUM+ is designed to be totally submersible, not because you want to sink it, but because the environment requires it. STANDARD HORIZON designs and builds marine vhf receivers to withstand the unkind demands you and Mother Nature will subject it to. That means SPECTRUM+ is able to survive the brutal attack of driving rain, salt fog or frequent dousings. Innovative design engineering insures the SPECTRUM+ is properly protected for years of use in a saltwater environment, instilling confidence that your radio will operate when you need it most. The SPECTRUM+ has been constructed to the highest standards in the industry. In fact, STANDARD HORIZON has won more awards for VHF Design and Engineering excellence from the prestigious National Marine electronics Association than any other VHF manufacturer. SUPERIOR TECHNOLOGY MEANS SIMPLE OPERATION With all of its technological advances, you might expect the SPECTRUM+ to be complicated to operate. Not TRUE! STANDARD HORIZON developed a simple menu system that allows the operator to initiate most operations with a single key depression. Ergonomically designed the SPECTRUM+'s keypad is carefully conceived. Dedicated backlit, function-specific keys make access to functions and features simple and straight forward. A dedicated key for channels 16/9, NOAA weather and two user-selected presets means operation of the most used channels is always a single key depression away. SPECTRUM+'s large rubber armored rotary channel selector, volume and squelch knobs are easy to grip with wet or gloved hands. | | | | | | ACTUAL SIZE Also available in white. DSC (DIGITAL SELECTIVE CALLING) CAPABILITIES The most important reason to have a VHF radio on board your vessel is safety. The U.S. Coast Guard will soon have national coverage for DSC reception. The SPECTRUM+ features the official U.S. Coast Guard recognized version of this technology. In an emergency the SPECTRUM+ is capable of sending an automated, unattended, continuous, digital MAYDAY message that includes current vessel position, time/date and a FCC assigned vessel identification. By design, the DSC MAYDAY will be digitally received by the Coast Guard, all commercial vessels and any other vessel equipped with a DSC radio. This digital safety feature insures prompt assistance eliminating critical mistakes in MAYDAY transmissions that occur when operators are under stress. To increase your sense of security the SPECTRUM+ also receives digital acknowledgments alerting the radio operator that the vessels distress call has been received. Of course the DISTRESS key is properly protected with a SPRING loaded cover to reduce the possibility of an unintentional activation. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
