Excellent radio, and works well with others.
(5 out of 5) by Nukedude on Mar 6, 2008 (Everett, WA)This radio was bought to replace the Icom IC-M602 radios used on board some commercial ships. The problem with the Icom was the lack of RF shielding. This unit does not interfere with any other radios, has DSC capability and great audio. DSC wiring is simple and straight forward. Nice bright display matches Vertex radios and unit is rugged. Screen size is not the largest but shows everything you need without going through menu screens. Solid performing radio. Get black for UV resistance and a cooler look.
Great radio for the price
(5 out of 5) by J. M. Sale on Apr 15, 2009 (Marin County, CA, USA)I bought this to replace the older ICOM on the bridge of my 46' Ocean Alexander. The installation was a snap and the smaller size is really nice. The transmission and reception quality seem very good and the ability to change channels with the microphone itself is a great feature. I haven't hooked it up to the GPS yet but that seems pretty straight forward...except for fishing the wires around.
I would highly recommend the radio to anyone looking for some good quality with the updated bells and whistles at a very reasonable price.
