Icom, the pioneers of the floating VHF marine radio, are setting a new trend with the IC-M25 because of new, life-saving features like a flashing beacon that activates when the VHF radio hits the water, even if the power is off, making the radio easy to find - day or night.
Thanks to the heavy duty 1500mAh battery, M25 has a battery life of 11 hours, so through any situation it'll be right there with you. The handheld VHF radio also charges quickly with the standard USB charging cable (included) which can even be used with cigarette lighters or mobile phone charging batteries. The compact Icom VHF radio weighs just approximately 220g and featuring a 30.5mm slim body, it's the new benchmark for floating transceivers.
The IC-M25 contains well known Icom features including favourite channel feature, dual/tri watch, one-touch 'Tag' scanning and a 4-step battery life indicator, as well as newer features like the AquaQuake draining function which removes water from the speaker grill by emitting a buzzing sound to shake the water free, assuring clear and sharp sound at all times.
M25's large LCD display and laser cut, curved shape buttons are well laid out and provide simple and straight-forward operation. In fact, the IC-M25's marine LCD is 30% larger than previous Icom marine transceivers, clearly showing channel numbers, status icons, and other important information in large and easy to read and well laid out formats. The optional speaker microphone is waterproof (available separately), providing convenience when mounting the marine radio at the waist or on a belt.
