Combi Microwave, radar , AIS and plotter

[jimi]

Are the new Chinese combination instruments anygood?

I'm rather struck by their trombonolin.

They're excellent. The main body of mine is made out of reconstituted chopped-up MAB's which it acquires by being on a 20m+ boat in various narrow channels, hoiks any sailing boat on board that might dare impede us, shows them relevant bits of rule 9 before proceding with the boat-recycling process through a wood chipper.

Rubbery!

Well..... as long as I can warm up my spam casserole on the radar I'm content.

Mine has never been the same since I tried to warm a Fray Bentos Steak and Kidney pie while tracking a high speed ferry in fog. It's a little bulky on the steering pedestal and keeps fouling the mainsheet, but the biggest glitch is that the display rotates while you're cooking. I've tried locking the display in "North up", but then it ruins the mackerel.

I usually lock mine in course up mode and each course comes out perfectly, of course!

Spam?i wont hear a bad word said about poor mans breakfast bacon..Lunchtime sandwiches then later you can pretend its gammon. Sex in a tin.

Mine works great...If I set the microwave to Met Defrost then the AIS range goes up to 48 miles and all the clutter disappears off the radio...Maybe P and O ferries should consider them.

The Radar alarm only works at night when microwaving fish
