I'm considering buying a Raymarine 54 Class D DSC VHF radio, and
wonder if anyone here has any experience with this (or other)
Raymarine VHFs. The advertised price for this radio seems
exceptionally low for a Class D radio - it is cheaper than many SC-101
radios.

Thanks


Raymarine makes a range of VHFs, from very good commercial quality
(with prices to match) to their consumer range. I think Raymarine
often has a bit of trouble making things truly waterproof so don't
mount in the cockpit. I have one of their plain cheap VHF's and find
it pretty decent (loud volume when I want it; good reception of lots
of weather stations). Probably better than my last off brand West
Marine one.
