The outstanding performer in its class, the Echomax Active-X Band Radar Target Enhancer is a state-of-the-art radar target enhancer - authorised by the FCC - which receives a signal from transmitting radar, amplifies it and returns a stronger signal.

This increases the likelihood of detection, alerting oncoming vessels of your position and thus reduces the risk of collision.

The Echomax Active-X Band Radar Target Enhancer has ahugely impressive array of features that cannot be surpassed by its competitors.
