Connecting DSC VHF to RAYMARINE chartplotter
Did any of you hook up the VHF that came with the boat (in our case the Icom M422) with a Raymarine chartplotter in order to be able to broadcast the vessel's position in a Distress call via DSC?
Ours seems to be properly wired through the NMEA 0183 output (via the AIS) but the VHF still says NO POSITION even when we get a satellite fix on the plotter.
Wondering if there is something else that needs to be configured differently on the plotter or the VHF...
Anyone gone through that?
Thanks!

Did you apply for and enter your DCS id into the radio?

Hi Franc,
We had this sort of issue when we installed the AIS. The problem seems to come from different baud rates;
The solution is to have a dedicated GPS antenna for the DSC VHF. We noticed that just connecting the Raymarine antenna and leaving it in the VHF cupboard worked very well. That way we have a spare (even 3 in all ) GPS antenna.
Was good to see you and family for coffee in Port Vell
