Electronics

This is another section of the Library list where we culled many of the articles and reports we’ve published over the years due to technology or legislative changes - witness the virtual disappearance of HF radio systems, and the marked downgrading of the ubiquitous 27Mhz radio transceiver, not to mention the virtual ‘disappearance’ of many popular brands of depth sounders and fish finders.

We’ve concentrated on retaining the communication articles of interest to today’s boat owners, dealing instead with satellite phone systems, VHF and in the near future, the more recent advent of on-board email and internet systems.

Rest assured we haven’t forgotten F&B’s popular depth sounder/fish finder reports - and as the electronics world seems to be settling down after the latest (2007) round of mergers and take-overs, we’ll be starting these again asap.
