2. INTRODUCTION
2.1 General
Congratulations for choosing Midland’s REGATTA™ 2 marine transceiver. This
product is a high performance, mobile VHF DSC marine transceiver. The following
are its principle features:
• Equipped with all international channels available (correctly assigned).
• High transmission power of 25W, which allows the user to maintain contact
from large distances, and a low transmission power of 1 W to reduce power
consumption during short-distance communication and for in harbor use.
• Principal commands duplicated on the microphone for faster accessibility –
channel selection and channel 16 recall.
• Backlit LCD display and adjustable contrast – constantly shows REGATTA
2’s parameters and settings on an easy-to-read display.
• Extraordinary capability for water resistance, conforms with the standard
IP54.
• Recall button for Channel 16 – for instant access to channel 16 (the universal
marine channel for emergency contact).
• NMEA connection – use the interface cable supplied for easy connection from
transceiver to optional GPS system. Once connected, the display will show the
automatically updated coordinates (latitude and longitude) and time data.
• DSC Digital Selective Calling – for security on the water and the ability to
make quick calls automatically (the transceiver supports DSC (Digital Selective
Calling) operations with a specifically designed DSC unit which conforms to the
ITU-R standard, M493-10 Class D requirement).
• MMSI directory, which simplifies the sending of DSC calls to frequently called
contacts and allows viewing of contact name on the display.
• Mounting on adjustable bracket for stable and comfortable positioning in any
condition.
• Connection to an external speaker (optional) – for listening to
communications further away from the transceiver.
