How Your CobraMarine
VHF Radio Works
This radio is a battery powered portable transceiver for use afloat. It gives you
2-way vessel-to-vessel and vessel-to-shore station communications, primarily
for safety and secondarily for navigation and operational purposes. With it, you
can call for help, get information from other boaters, talk to lock or bridge tenders,
and make radiotelephone calls to anywhere in the world through a marine operator.
Besides 2-way communications, the radio can provide quick access to receive
all 10 NOAA (National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration) weather
channels and alert you to weather emergencies with a tone on a
weather channel you can select for your area.

Cómo funciona el radio VHF CobraMarine
Este radio es un transceptor portátil alimentado con baterías para uso a bordo de
una embarcación. El mismo permite la comunicación bidireccional, tanto entre una
embarcación y otra como entre una embarcación y la costa, principalmente para fines
de seguridad aunque también para fines de navegación y operación. Con este radio
usted puede pedir ayuda, recibir información proveniente de la tripulación de otras
embarcaciones, hablarle a operadores de esclusas y puentes levadizos, y realizar
llamadas radiotelefónicas a cualquier parte del mundo a través de un operador marítimo.
Además de permitir comunicaciones bidireccionales, el radio puede proporcionar un
acceso rápido para recepción de los 10 canales de información meteorológica de la
Administración nacional del océano y la atmósfera (NOAA, National Oceanographic and
Atmospheric Administration), y avisarle sobre emergencias relacionadas con mal tiempo
mediante un tono recibido en un canal meteorológico que usted selecciona de acuerdo a
su área.
