[PSUBS-MAILIST] OTS

[Alan via Personal_Submersibles]

Rick,
we had a good discussion on this subject back in mid July till round about
August 2. You may be able to find it in the archives.
Great getting older, we can all have a new discussion about something we
thrashed out a month ago!
Below is an email from Emile about a cheaper unit he recommends; however
I could not find any information about how many Watts the unit was & to me
that is a big factor affecting the range. I am guessing it is less than the OTS
if they are not showing this important stat. Emile has had good range from it.
Alan

>> Ocean Reef UW communication  might be  a alternative for those who want a cheaper alternative for OTS. I am using 2 M105 DC units for 5 years now and happy with it. They are more intended for recreational use that OTS but  the units give good quality sound even with the sub at 200 M (600 ft) deep and a Kilometer away on open sea!

>> The M100  is a more compact unit  http://diving.oceanreefgroup.com/accessory/m100-g-divers-portable-surface-transceiver/
