populated areas.

NMEA Port for GPS, Chartplotter and
DSC Interfacing
The NMEA “IN” input in this radio will
receive GPS position information from all
GPS devices (e.g., Chartplotters, GPS
sensors) sending out their position
information using the standard NMEA
0183 protocol. This position information
from the GPS is then sent by the MR F80
when sending out DSC emergency
transmissions. This unit also has an
NMEA “OUT” output. This allows the
radio to send out position information
received from other VHF radio units. This
enables position polling and other
advanced integration.
