Any lengthy passage is not complete without the Furuno FAX208. This affordable and programmable weather fax receives high quality, high resolution weather updates and satellite images — information that is critical to the success of any extended ocean voyage. The FAX207 also incorporates a “stand-alone” SSB receiver. The FAX208 operates independently without requiring a separate SSB receiver. A variety of antenna options or an optional coupler may be used to simplify the installation and enhance performance.
