Furuno introduces the Model 1600 radar with a weatherproof, wind-resistant radome antenna. Designed primarily for small coastal vessels and pleasure craft, the 1600 is said to provide performance unmatched in this type radar. A totally new microwave IC circuit in the transceiver doubles receiver sensitivity, thereby equaling the performance of much larger radars.
The bright 7-inch CRT (12-inch equivalent with integral magnifier), full 3-kw output power, six range scales to 16 nautical miles, and dual pulse lengths produce a superb picture. Consisting of just two units, interconnected by a single flexible cable, the Model 1600 is simple to install and the compact display is easily unplugged for safe storage. This radar contains a universal 11-40-volt dc power supply, and draws an extremely low 50 watts.
