The marine antenna system RV-16 is the integration of the high performance GPS patch antenna and a low noise amplifier into state-of-the-art low a very low profile/extremely compact/fully waterproof antenna signal enclosure. When connected to a GPS receiver with +5V DC antenna power it provide excellent signal amplification and out-band-rejection for that receiver.
