This guy isn't lying when he says their products are "same as furuno":
I also see Garmin, Interphase 'ripoffs' where they just copied the entire design.
I hope Furuno & Garmin go after these guys, and stop doing business with outfits like these. Shows how far the Chinese still have to go wrt intellectual property rights as well as how companies in the developed world still have to be careful with dealing with them.
Thanks for pointing out this entry, Kees. I don't like to see the Panbo Forum used for spam advertising, and I've deleted the other entries put up by "huayangtech". But I'll leave this one up so the search engines can find our comment.
I don't know anything about Huayang Technology itself, and am not sure they manufacture anything themselves, but I have heard that knock off AIS transponders from China and South Korea are causing problems. Apparently they can get local approvals even though they can't pass TUV or BSH testing and they may not properly honor the AIS time slot sharing protocol. In other words, they can step on other transponders, which is not good. I will write more about this issue soon.
