Marine transceiver

The GME GX620 handheld marine VHF transceiver has most of the features of larger 25 W fixed-mount marine VHF radios, including channel scan, instant channel 16 access, dual and triple watch.

This compact 3 W unit is suitable for dinghies or tenders that need to keep in touch with the 'mother ship' or small boats that don't have electrical systems or sufficient space for a fixed-mount radio.

Six buttons on the front panel and the volume/power knob maximise simplicity of operation. Even when wearing gloves, the large buttons are easy to operate. A large, clear LCD with backlighting and backlit buttons makes night-time operation equally simple.

The transceiver uses a 1000 mAh Li-Ion battery pack with an automatic power saving mode, providing extended operating life without the worry of 'memory effect' found with Ni-Cad batteries.

A 'drop in' quick charger and carry case are supplied as part of the standard package.
