any one used one to transmit the ais from a digital yacht transceiver to Ipad using navionics ???,,,, and how .
I have an AIS receiver (EasyAIS A025) which spits out a standard AIS !AIVDM message at 38,400 BPS. This feeds straight into the Yakker which then re-transmits it over Wifi. I use a laptop and tablet both with OpenCPN to view the AIS data and it works seamlessly. In OpenCPN I set up the IP address and port number that Yakker uses (I just use the defaults but they can be changed) and data comes in immediately. Very easy to set up and does exactly what it should. Although I use OpenCPN I guess Navionics will be similar.
