Unboxing Setup and Operation of the ICOM M94D VHF Handheld Radio with AIS, GPS and DSC

This Video is about the ICOM M94D, a VHF handheld Marine radio with the AIS capability, also GPS and Digital Selective Calling (DSC) via Marine Mobile Service Identity (MMSI).
Amazing technology on the Ocean in a small handheld package, great safety device for active boaters, fishermen, jet skiers, personal watercraft users and even Scuba Divers and Free divers using a Personal Locator Beacon such as the Nautilus Marine GPS Rescue device.
Since most of the smaller boats we dive from do not have AIS technology on board, and we so many divers seeming to be "lost at sea" for many varied reasons, this handheld AIS Receiver in a VHF radio is welcome device. It can be carried in your dive bag and left with the captain, should you surface and the boat not be there, if you carry the Nautilus Lifeline Marine GPS Rescue unit (good to 130 feet and deeper) you can now use this Personal Locator Beacon to signal for help via the AIS system.
This is the default operating mode of the Nautilus Lifeline and therefore works with this VHF M94D Handheld radio with AIS made by ICOM.
What a very welcome device.
