Loudspeaker/Bullhorn system for ships and harbours.
Electronics item. Allows a ship or ground control to hail and issue commands to other ships within the short range of the loudspeaker. Input text is converted to all caps.
Your longboat is sailing peacefully when:
You hear a very loud voice: "ATTENTION UNIDENTIFIED LONGBOAT, YOU ARE IN BLACKROCK TERRITORIAL WATERS. IMMEDIATELY DOCK TO THE HARBOUR FOR INSPECTION. FAILURE TO COMPLY WILL BE CONSIDERED A CRIMINAL BREACH AND DEALT WITH BY FORCE."
Two ships equipped with the loudspeaker systems can talk to each other without docking if they are in close proximity. No way to select a target ship. All ships within range will hear the message you broadcast.

What would it be made of?
And how can we control where this will be used? If it was only on ships we could make it like one more upgrade of our ship. Instead of building a seal, you would build this.
But you referred a ground control too, so that means like harbours? What I mean is, to be sure that we don't allow people to build these things out of ships and out of harbours.

You can build a radio receiver on your boat ;p

So you can't listen to them.

Why isn't that realistic? There's nothing unrealistic about having one on any boat at all.

It's not realistic to be able to carry innumerable crossbows with your bare hands.
Being able to speak into a bullhorn or loudspeaker = realistic.
Three thumbs up for this idea, so long as it is limited to boats and harbours.

You can't force others to have radios though, and a very large percent of ships do not have them.
The point of thise bullhorn was to be able to give orders, or communicate with other ships in an area wether they have a radio or not. Also, you don't have to figuere out what channel they are one, and you transmission only affects a limitied area, it doesn't broadcast to all towns like a radio transmission would.
Every action has a consequence.
