Nasa Navtex PC Pro Engine-USB c/w H-Vector AntennaThe PC Navtex USB is a two channel navtex receiver designed to operate on a personal computer. It will receive navtex messages even without the PC connected. Navtex messages are stored in a vast internal memory and available to download when the system is booted up. Downloading is quick and the software provided allows users to select the messages to view.
Leave the unit on 24/7 then, then when onboard, just plug in the PC and immediately download the latest weather forecast from any local station, or any other message stored in the PC Navtex USB’s memory.
The omnidirectional H-Vector antenna is not sensitive to electric fields but to the magnetic component of the navtex signal. As a result it is less sensitive to locally generated interference and, as it does not need a ground, it is not affected by conducted ground interference whether in harbour or at sea.
The net result is that, under adverse conditions, the H-Vector antenna can deliver a significant improvement to navtex reception. The mushroom shaped antenna is compatible with the Clipper navtex, series 2 Target navtex and with the navtex engine. It can be mounted on a cabin roof or rail mounted using an appropriate threaded antenna base. - 518 and 490kHz message reception
