Decca is more than just a radar company.

A lot more.

There are more than 50,000 Decca radar installations afloat. On merchant ships of just about every sea-going flag. And the navies of 48 nations. We developed the world's first practical commercial radar. The first anti-colli- sion radar. The first true solid-state radar. The first economical small boat radar.

So ITT Decca Marine is a pretty exclusive radar company.

True. But we're not exclusively radar. For instance:

Our EL AC echosounding equipment. For fishing, navigation, ocean- ographic research. Including fishscopes—free-running and synchro- nous—that let you zoom in on any depth of water with just the righti degree of discrimination. And models that let you see your way clear in shallow water or to depths of 36,000 feet.

Our radio line. Powerful VHF/FM models that let you get your mes- sage through, even under the most adverse conditions. Designed for ship-to-ship/ship-to-shore dependable communications networks. Ideal for harbor and nearby offshore requirements.

Our Decca Marine monitoring system. Completely modular and solid state.

It looks for trouble on your ship...and finds it if it is there. Electronically. Before it becomes trouble. It monitors pressure, temperature, levels, etc. Up to 240 alarm points. Prevention.. .better than cure.

Our Decca Marine gyro/autopilot systems. For small fishing craft and giant supertankers. It will cut your fuel bill and increase your speed. It will cut the wear and tear on your engine, and free your helmsman for other work.

There's more. Because electronic navigational equipment that never breaks down hasn't been in- vented yet. So we invented the next best thing; a unique system of quality control, in every phase of production, that cuts the probability of equipment breakdown to a minimum. And we have devel- oped the world's most extensive service organization—400 dealers, in every major port and most minor ones—completely equipped with Decca Marine spare parts for on-the-spot replacement as required. And staffed by factory-trained, experienced technicians and servicemen.

If you own a ship or a fleet, coastwise or offshore, fishing or harbor craft, it's a good idea to remember that Decca Marine is a lot more than a radar company. It could save you a lot of worry.

And a lot of money.

Give us a call and find out how much.
