Let's Talk Radar!

 



Radar is one of the most important devices to help you stay safe on the water. No other piece of marine electronics can give you as much information about the objects around you and keep you aware of their movements in darkness, rain, or fog. Join us at 7:00 PM EDT (4:00 PM PDT) as our experts walk through what a Radar is, how it works, and how to select the best Radar option for your boat. We'll be going LIVE on Facebook and YouTube to discuss what is perhaps the most important navigation safety device you'll ever own. Whether you are a seasoned mariner or new to Radar, we invite you to tune in - you're certain to pick up some new tips and tricks along the way!

As always, we’ll include plenty of time for questions and answers, so you can ask our experts any questions you may have or request a more in-depth analysis of the topics we discuss along the way. 

 

Here's our schedule for the next three weeks:

          • May 5 – TZtouch3 Version 2 Software Features

          • May 12 – Ask The Experts – How to choose the right Radar

          • May 19 – SCX20/21 Satellite Compasses

Today, on April 6th, safety partners are joining forces again to mark the annual 406Day, raising awareness and promoting the benefits of emergency beacons as interest in outdoor recreational activities continues to surge.

With more people than ever looking for ways to socially distance and head out on the water or try new adventures in the mountains, tracks, trails and other remote areas, the 406Day message highlighting the importance of EPIRBs (Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon), PLBs (Personal Locator Beacon) and ELTs (Emergency Locator Transmitter) takes on even greater significance in 2021.

This 406Day, ACR Electronics and aviation, outdoor and boating safety partners are urging new boaters, outdoor enthusiasts and aviators to understand the life-saving features of 406 MHz beacons, as well as the responsibilities of owning a device, so they can enjoy the outdoors safely this year and help the emergency services to find them quickly when a rescue operation is necessary.
