| 摘要： | The ability to communicate anytime and anywhere on the water - to other vessels, shore-based operators, or crewmen on your own boat - is critical for safe, efficient, and profitable vessel operations. Fortunately, it's a technology that is continually evolving, as three radio companies mentioned below demonstrate. Standard Horizon (Yaesu USA), Cypress, Calif., released its newest radio, the HX320, in January. It's a handheld VHF radio equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology. Match it up with Standard Horizon's optional headset and the HX320 can be operated wirelessly. Standard Horizon's Hans Rooker admitted the HX320 was designed "more for the recreation market than the commercial market." But, he said, Standard Horizon is hoping to take advantage that because "some work-boats do like a wireless headset" the HX320 will find a niche in the commercial market. He thinks crane operators are one possibility, especially when the operator must use both hands to operate the crane, while at the same time "needing to talk to the vessel. If he had a Bluetooth, he'd be able to use it hands free," said Rooker, adding "we've heard there is a need." |
