Time for another Navagear feature at MadMariner. This time, I talk about the Standard Horizon GX2000 and GX2100 models, two of the coolest new VHF radios on the market, why I’m super-excited about it, and why I’m simultaneously a little disappointed.
I should also point out that you can see these units at the Standard Horizon booth at the Seattle Boat Show, upstairs in Concourse 2336.

Tim,
Correct me if I’m wrong.
I understand and agree with your comment about the 2000i if you are using it as your AIS receiver.
However in my case (and yours) we already have AIS connected (by whatever means) between dedicated AIS receiver and GPS. So the 2000 unit would simply read the high speed output of the AIS and give us that magical ability to contact another AIS target by simply pressing a button. I don’t need any output from it for my GPS.
