Raymarine Quantum Q24C 20W 24nm CHIRP Pulse Compression Radar

A compact, high performance solid-state marine radar with CHIRP pulse compression technology. Quantum sets a new standard for radar imaging, delivering superior radar target recognition on both long and extremely short ranges, as close as 18 feet.

Quantum Raymarine Radar features Raymarine's exclusive ATX advanced target separation technology which displays targets like boats, landmarks, rocks, buoys and weather cells with unsurpassed resolution and separation quality. CHIRP Pulse Compression ensures more radar energy reaches each target, resulting in superior imaging on long ranges. In addition, the technology also identifies small, weak targets, even when positioned close to strong returns.

Key Features:

24-mile range for early detection of traffic, navigation aids, landfall and weather.
CHIRP Pulse compression ensures more energy reaches each target, resulting in superior imaging on long ranges.
Easy to upgrade as uses the same bolt pattern as previous generation radars.
Extended vessel battery life when under sail.
Features Wi-Fi for connecting wirelessly to Raymarine chartplotter displays.
Optional Quantum adapter cable eliminates the need to run new radar cables when upgrading.
Low power consumption for extended battery life under sail.
Perfect for sailboats, RIBs and smaller powerboats.
Safe emissions thanks to Quantum's low power solid state radar transmitter.
Small diameter power cable is easy to route through tight spaces.
Solid-state technology is ready to use in seconds, without any lengthy warm up period.
Superior interference rejection eliminates noise from other radars.
Very low power consumption (17W transmit and 7W standby).
Weighs 50% less than traditional magnetron radars.
