VHF Radio
For those of you who dont have a radio this is a good deal
http://www.westmarine.com/buy/west-m..._-150313-_-N/A |
Is this the radio you use? Any problems with it?
|
Nope I have a standard horizon floating edition
|
Good deal... btw, this is very similar to the Uniden MHS75 that I have... found my Uniden MHS75 on Amazon, currently listed $70-$80 depends on seller/availability.
|
I was looking at the standard horizon 851 model. Has decent reviews and amazon has it for about 120 bucks or so.
|
I'd spend the extra $$$ for a floating model.
|
Just picked this up from west marine for same price. Plus warranty.. Has everything plus more...

Floating is good, but don't need it. Your radio should be tethered to your PFD which should be on your body.
|
I just bought an HX-300 floating radio and it was inoperable right out of the box. The charging port was loose and wouldn't charge. Makes me wonder about quality control at the Chinese factory. Any American made models around?
|
That sucks. For the most part all the radios I looked at had a few negative reviews mixed in. It seems hit or miss. Hopefully the one I ordered is a good one...
