Standard Horizon HX460S Handheld VHF Radio
(comes in Black or Silver)
Worlds smallest submersible 5 Watt Marine VHF
2002 NMEA Product Award Winner!
Don't let the size of the HX460S mislead you. While the HX460S is a mere 3.5 inches tall it delivers a full 5 watts of talking power. The unit featues two other battery extending power settings of 2.5 Watts and 1 Watt.
The HX460S utilizes a high impact, non-corrosive die-cast case and chassis. This unique case insures the HX460S will withstand the physical abuse a Handheld VHF receives from being dropped or banged on the deck of a boat. Using the HX460S in the rain or in a life boat is not a issue as it can take submersions of 3' for 30 minutes.
A whooping 1100 mAh Lithium-ion battery is standard equipment with the HX460S. The lithium-ion Battery provides extended hours of operation between charges. Unlike other rechargeable batteries, Lithium-ion batteries do not develop a memory when charged before being completely discharged. Additionally, our Lithium-ion battery will hold its charge even when the radio is unused for months longer than a traditional NiCad. When it is time to recharge you battery, the 110VAC or 12VDC quick charger (3 hours or less) will get you back on the air quickly. Finally, there is no surprise when the battery does require a charge: The HX460S features a unique battery life indicator on the LCD that workd like a dynamic "gas guage," indicating when the battery needs to be charged.
Although the HX460S is small in overall size, it features a large LCD window with tall, wide digits and bold information flags that are easy to read and identify. Both the LCD and the keypad are backlit for best visibility at night.
Because the HX460S is built better, it's backed better. If the STANDARD HORIZON HX460S VHF radio fails for any reason (including water damage) during normal use in the first three years of ownership, STANDARD HORIZON will repair or replace it free, without hassle or charges. If it fails any time thereafter in normal use, for as long as the original purchaser owns the radio, STANDARD HORIZON's Lifetime Flat Rate Program will cover it. The Flat Rate is determined at the time of original purchase.
