Several of us went out on the Lady Laura today to compare several electronic heading sensors and do some final radar testing. After hooking everything up, we didn't really have time to calibrate all of the heading sensors, but we did mess around with the radar quite a bit while using the Vector G3 GPS Heading Sensor from ComNav (since it doesn't require any calibration).

The heading sensors we are testing include the Maretron SSC200, the Airmar H2183, the Elproma ECS1, and the ComNav Vector G2. More information about the tests will be posted when we're done.

The radar worked great!
