Hello all hope you are all as well as can be.
I have the raymarine AIS700. I installed it today and it has been running for a few hrs. I was wondering if anybody has installed one and also has app on there phone that can actually see the signal like "boatbeacon".
My question is when I turned the system on and programmed the mmsi number into the unit it also has ship name and size. Well, it took about half hr for the app to finally show me but the name and size are not registering. It's updating but the name has not appeared yet.
Has anyone seen this? Does it take time to record the name and boat size from AIS?
Yes, I have shut the system on and off a few times. I verified ibhave the latest software. I just want to be able to see the name of the boat,,, more for my brother so he knows where my location is at all times. And yes, me and my brother are that close. And he's the only reason why I bought this POS to begin with.
Anyway, all comments are always appreciated.
