The Icom MA-510TR is a Class B AIS transponder that simultaneously transmits your vessel's static and dynamic information while receiving AIS signals from other vessels and base stations. Receives both Class A and Class B AIS signals. Ideal for detecting small AIS-equipped boats and buoys that may be difficult to detect by radar alone.
