The GPS antenna serves as an external antenna for the AMEC Camino 101A and works perfectly. Easy installation, just great.

Transponder Easy to install, it has its place behind a multiplexer that feeds data into my computer. With a small footprint, it finds its place without problems and appears robust construction. It is a product that gives confidence

Works well, easy to program but gets overheated in summer

The Camino was easy to install and program and worked fine all spring. When the summer came it stopped sending AIS sentences. At first we contacted SVB to have it replaced under warranty but after we took it out it worked fine again so we started looking for a VHF antenna fault. This took some months and fall came and we enjoyed our transatlantic and Carribean vacations. The unit was working fine. Then spring came and the weather got warmer and the unit stopped sending AIS messages. We understood why. It's getting hot. We put spacers between the bulkhead and the unit and drilled some holes on the wooden panel it was fixed on. This did the trick. But it's frustrating to do this debugging job. It's not the users responsibility.

Technical question

Mikko S. | Nov 11, 2025

Can CAMINO-108 provide gps data to an older VHF radio via NMEA 0183 and AIS data to a MFD by NMEA 2000?

Answer from SVB customer service

Andreas M. | Nov 12, 2025

Hello Mikko, yes, both data transfers are possible. For transfer GPS datas to the VHF radio you maybe have to change the baud rate for the port you connect the VHF radio. The default for AIS is 38.400, and the correct baud rate for GPS data is 4.800.
