80 Mile AIS Range

It’s a easy as that !!

We love hearing from our customers and seeing pictures of Quark-elec products in action.

Huge thank you to one of our distributors (Londonchartplotters) for sharing this feedback from one of their customers.

Sailing in the English Channel last weekend they managed to use a very basic & simple AIS system – using our Quark-elec A023 and a basic AIS antenna  (as pictured before installation) and managed to see boats 80 miles way.

“8-8-18

80 MILES+  A.I.S. HITS…WITH OUR 8″ TABLET WITH QUARK 023

AND OUR L.C.P  VHF/AIS ANTENNA!!!!!!!  WORLD RECORD???

EXCEPTIONAL CONDITIONS? OUR ANTENNA JUST ON CABIN ROOF!!!!”

Here is one the screen shots he took:

Thank you Steve. We’re not sure it’s a world record but great that you’re customers had such exceptional results using the Quark-elec A023 AIS receiver with WiFi.

In most cases the limit for an AIS receiver is about 45 miles. But with the right conditions a further range is possible.
