AIS is on 161.975 and 162.025 MHz.  So you can receive it on any narrow-band FM VHF receiver, I expect.  The problem is in interpreting the data.  You can spring for a receiver that interprets the data for you, which will be something around $200.  If you want to roll your own, you'll need something like this: <a href="http://www.coaa.co.uk/shipplotterfaq.htm">http://www.coaa.co.uk/shipplotterfaq.htm</a> which requires a computer with a sound card.<br>

Sorry, I mis-read that as APRS, but they should work with any narrow band FM mode.<div class="im"><br>
