I'm installing a Garmin 300 AIS system over the next couple of weeks on my boat. Garmin states that their system allows for usage of your current VHF antennae for installation. I've heard varying views on VHF performance when sharing antennas with AIS. Does anyone out there have experience using the same antennae for your VHF and AIS system? If so, have you noticed any degradation in performance using the VHF? Is it better to simple install a separate antennae (more cost and work of course)?
