I've been on the hunt for a radio...found this one. Tried to find reviews or problems online and it seems to check out...maybe a close out model??? Pricing looks GREAT...

hahaha Deamon your such a good guy, lookin out for your fellow BWE members like that.

anyone else use this radio or have any input?? i too have been lookin for a radio but just havent been able to pull the trigger cause of costs but this seems worth it and is basically within my price range.

What about the headset is it water resistant and does it float? I cant seem to find any info. Standard Horizon. Does have some good customer service.

i know you provided a review but what seems like icing on the cake to you is that the list price is $633.31 but it's "on sale" now for $111.99 (+ shipping). The amazon price is HIGHLY inflated. Just a thought.

Deamon · 08-11-2011, 02:40 PM

I did see where it is a closeout model. Can't find any reported issues...

fishsouthcounty · 08-11-2011, 10:09 PM

looks like a deal to me....havent been able to find anything saying otherwise and from what ive read standard horizon puts out a good product all around. Plus it has a 3 year warranty. I guess ill be the test dummy....im buyin one.

Deamon · 08-12-2011, 05:38 AM

I got one too. Three year warranty, one year for the battery. I'm thinking it was an upper edge model that didn't sell well and now closed out...
That list price is Standard Horizon, not Amazon's...

Deamon · 08-18-2011, 08:56 AM

Got it yesterday. A quality model being closed out. Standard Horizon, floating/submersible, 6 watt, 3 year warranty for $111.00.

fishsouthcounty · 08-19-2011, 10:06 PM

ya im up in Monterey but my dad said mine came yesterday. Cant wait to get out and put it to use. Be fishing Dana Point Wednesday morning if anyone is down. Made a 1000 bucks working while i was up here so think im gonna finally pull the trigger on a FF. Thinking the Cuda350.

sasha · 08-25-2011, 10:33 PM

what is the normal distance you can use the radio with the 6watts??? the last few times i been going out on my own and think saftey is more important then how big of the fish i would catch.. I know nothing of radios and reading about them with all the spec's i realy dont understand much about them. Why one would sale for $400 and the other for 100 for the same company and the spec's sound almost the same..
