Hear, hear!

I'm particularly interested in the AIS engine (as opposed to the 'radar').
For people that can not wait I'll post a do it your self recipe for AIS reception in a separate message.

1. The Radar bit in the product is there only to say that the display is radar like.

2. The product Detects And calculates a Range for vessels who carry a AIS transponder via a vhf RAdio wave so if you look at the pure definition of a radar this system is in fact a radar.
