Looking at getting a new vhf handheld, the old one is, well, old, and
cranky. Looks like the Standard Horizon's HX260 is on closeout for $100
in several places, any one have any experience with this handheld? the
price is right for a waterproof/submersible, and SH makes mostly decent
kit, in a chevy not a caddy sort of way.

We got the Atlantis 250 last year for $90. Came with NiMH pack, holder
for AA backup, 6vdc & 120vac chargers. Nice unit. Replaced our M1
(Nicad) for less than the M1's battery pack.
