Hardcore Handheld
Submersible and equipped with a safety strobe, the rugged HX600S VHF ($200) from Standard Horizon puts DSC distress calling in the palm of your hand. Simply hook the charger cradle to a compatible GPS. The VHF remembers the lat-lon when it was last in the cradle. It then transmits that position with your preset distress message at the push of a button. Equipped with programmable scan and multiple watch modes, the HX600S is a great backup radio that provides full access to marine and weather bands as well as AM and FM.
