The GX2100E is able to display AIS targets in a radar style format, on the large 1.8" LCD display of the radio. Determination of bearing and range can be made from viewing the screen. Detailed additional data received from the AIS targets that include an MMSI number may also be displayed on the screen. An automatic DSC call can be made to a specific AIS vessel by simply selecting the target and pressing the call button without the need to type in the vessel's MMSI number.
