Garmin GMR Fantom™ 256 Radar

THE POWER TO SEE MORE

GMR Fantom™ 256 is the most powerful 6’ consumer solid-state radar.

The GMR Fantom™ 256, our most powerful 6’ solid-state radars, feature 250 W of power. They use MotionScope™ technology to detect and highlight moving targets in different colors, which helps you avoid potential collisions, find flocks of birds and track weather. New MARPA Automatic Acquisition allows for triggering and tracking with no user prompting on all returns, boundary zones, guard zones or MotionScope. Scan-to-scan averaging, a new feature, helps aid in reduction of sea clutter and interference. Its Pulse Compression technology provides high-resolution imaging and maximizes energy to help you detect and identify targets. Auto Bird Gain helps you identify flocks of birds on the water. The GMR Fantom 256 radar have a detection range of 20’ to 96 nautical miles.
