Icom to Showcase GM600 MED GMDSS Class A VHF/DSC Marine Transceiver at Skipper Expo (Bristol)

Icom will be showcasing its new commercial VHF/DSC marine transceiver at Skipper Expo (Bristol) between the 7th and 8th September 2017. The new GM600 is designed for Class A DSC operation and provides a complete GMDSS VHF communication system as required for Commercial SOLAS regulated vessels engaging in international voyages. The GM600 meets the Marine Equipment Directive 2014/90/EU “wheel mark” approval for European merchant ships.

The GM600 is ideal for any commercial vessel that demands reliable, easy to use and high performance communications, crucial to the daily running of a commercial operation. It would be ideally suited to cruise liners, tankers, offshore tugs, salvage vessels and deep sea fishing vessels. The GM600 has an independent DSC receiver, which constantly monitors Channel 70 whilst using another VHF channel. The DSC allows crew to call other ships or coast stations directly as well as all ships in their geographical area.
