Does this unit have a NMEA connection to my VHF Marine radio ?

Beats me. I'm just trying to figure out how to stop Amazon sending me these damn queries!

Yes it does, on my boat I use a Metra Electronics 44-UL15 retractable antenna. It's out of the way when I don't need it or to put cover on and gets good reception.

No it does not... ordered one w my radio and the pin was not the right size... returned!

I just installed my VHF on my sailboat, but have not installed an external speaker. According to my users manual, there IS a connector for an external speaker. I'm very satisfied with the unit so far.

No. But my GPS on mine is all messed up and I can't get clarion to do anything about it since day one of having it.

Yes it does. Very easy to mount. I use it for UHF stations about 50 miles away and works very well line of sight.

The unit is physically able to transmit on those frequencies, although it could take some time to figure out how. It is not type accepted for that use. The unit is designed to be used by licensed radio amateurs and other use would technically be illegal. My suggestion would be to buy a radio designed for the use it will be put to. There are a lot of reasonably priced marine vhf radios available on sites like like EBay.

I expect it to work, the output of the unit is generic NMEA and I have used it with 3 or 4 different NAV programs without issue. This is BY FAR one of the best GPS pucks out there. I have not tried Streets & trips, but honestly I'm 98% sure it will work. And work well.

No I do not think so, VHF only. I bought a separate antenna for stereo, it was cheap.

You cannot. You set in the menu a specific NOAA frequency number (it doesn't list the frequencies, just assigns them a memory number) and if there's an alert, the radio will let you know.

No it does not. It is a single band, single VFO (vhf) radio with no repeater function. Typically a dual band radio (vhf/uhf) would have a crossband repeat capability with two independent VFOs.

I'm going to say no, that's due to the frequencies operate on different radio bands. Marine radios operate on the VHF 155.000 and above where as a CB radio operates on a short distance band from 26.000 and up.

A male connection comes with the radio and plugs into the back behind a rubber plug with the tag GPS on it. The signal will come into the unit using this connection. I have a Lowrance depth finder/GPS that I splice into the proper cable and connect to the appropriate tag ends of the supplied radio GPS connector. There are just two wires to connect, ground and input. Finding out which requires a look at the radio manual and your GPS manual. For the radio, see page 33. From the supplied connector ran the black to ground and the red to my input (GPS out). Hope this helps.

Yes it does. There is a connector for both an AM and FM external antenna. The AM connector is a single wire clip connector and the FM connector is a type F connector.

I am assuming that it can, however I use it in conjunction with my ham radio activities and also as a tracker on my APRS radio. If you read the specs, you will be able to determine if the functions are the same. I'm sorry I can't help with marine issues. Good luck.

As a Coasty: No. The United States Coast Guard actively moniters Marine VHF on Channel 16 and 22A due to FCC regulations. The boats and shore units are capable of monitering other stations; however Channel 16 (156.8 mhz) is the international hailing and distress frequency and this is the channel you should have your radio set to in case of an emergency. These radios do not cover channel 16 or any marine-band radios.Please be safe, always have a life jacket for every person on a vessel and VHF marine radio as well as any and all other safety gear necessary for your chosen form of maritime travel.

None that I can see. I believe the 1700E is a designation for the unit sold in the UK. If you go to their website and click on the UK flag in the upper right corner, then choose products and then fixed mount VHF radios, then with built in GPS, it will show as GX-1700E. I have the GX-1700 and it is a great radio. Once you enter your MMSI number identifying your boat, all you would have to do is hit the red button and you GPS coordinates and your identification information will be broadcasted. Hope that helps......Eric9103@comcast.net
