#1 get one on sale at West Marine, #2 is get one that has a stronger belt clip and not those cheap ass push in all plastic belt clips. #3 get one that floats and if you can afford it get one with built it GPS. I have had two break were the belt clip attached at the Radio, first one I took back to West Marine and they gave me another. The second one (same model) broke at the clip mount and disappeared in the surf while I was just getting up off the kayak in 2 feet of water and a wave hit me. Next thing I'm looking at my PFD and going WTF?. Now I make sure that the short hand leash is also tied to one of the rings on the PFD.
