Micro- > Talk allows high speed transmission of data such as wind angle, wind > speed, depth, boat speed, temperature, heading, GPS data, time, date > and navigation information between Raymarine wireless Micronet compatible > devices and wired Raymarine SeaTalkng compatible devices. and autopilots. > > The Micro-Talk Gateway allows you the flexibility to mix-and-match any > combination of wired or wireless Raymarine instruments, transducers, > multifunction displays and autopilots. Whether you are building a new system > from scratch, or expanding an existing system, the Micro-Talk Gateway makes > for a totally simple and superior integration between components. > — Fred Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceanis (1979 C&C Landfall 38) -- on the hard in Bayfield, WI :^(
