B&G V50 VHF Radio

with integrated AIS receiver and DSC controller

---

Dual-channel VHF
The V50 VHF radio for dual-channel communication with AIS reception and VHF via a single antenna. The unique "TrackYourBuddy" function shows the position of up to three buddies. Use AIS with B&G Zeus chartplotters for a fully integrated navigation and security system.

Whether it's a handheld system for using a thumb to "push to talk" or a built-in VHF system with dedicated channel buttons, the menus are always easy-to-use and intuitive. All B&G VHF maritime radio systems have an emergency switch for situations at sea when distress calls need to be made. Thanks to Digital Selective Calling, every B&G system can send an automatic distress signal.
