The Shoreline Inhibit sets the global shoreline threshold value. If a vessel's
distance to the nearest shoreline is less than or equal to the threshold, and NOT
inside an enabled coordinated area, ROSS will mute the satellite modem's trans-
mitter.
The shoreline threshold can be disabled by setting to 0. The shoreline value is a
decimal value representing kilometers.
For example, the FCC for the US shoreline is required to cease transmission at
200.0 kilometers from shore.
Stealth Mode, if enabled, will omit any location information in the Satellite
Location Identification Protocol (SLIP) message. Some modes of operation
require location of vessels to remain unidentified from network operators.
