Which is a better unit?? I favor the Raymarine as it has a very large display, but if it is lousy radio, I'd prefer the Icom, or other brands. Your suggestions please! Bob Bob, when you shop for the bottom of the lines, they are all comparable. The differences are only barely noteable when the price climbs more than twice that high. I would recommend any new radio you choose have "D" class DSC/GMDSS capability. That way it won't be too far out of pace when the "E" models are mandatory when the (someday effective) Rescue-21 vhf-marine emergency system is online nationwide. Jack What is the difference between "D" class and "E" class DSC/GMDSS D class are very difficult to undersatnd, and E class are impossible to underestand. Remove "nospam" from return address. |
