GX620 VHF Marine Handheld Radio
Big Performance from a small package.
The GME GX620 Handheld Marine VHF Radio offers boat owners and marine enthusiasts
a substantially lower cost portable option without sacrificing features or compromising on
quality.
With most of the features of the larger 25 Watt fixed-mount marine VHF radios,
including channel scan, instant Channel 16 access, dual and triple watch the compact 5
Watt GX620 is ideal for dinghies or tenders that need to keep in touch with the 'mother
ship' or small boats that don’t have electrical systems or sufficient space for a fixedmount radio.
Simple operation, 6 clearly labelled buttons on the front panel and the volume/power
knob maximize simplicity of operation. Even when wearing gloves, the large buttons are
easy to operate. A large, clear LCD with backlighting and backlit buttons makes night
time operation equally simple. Ingress protection and solid die-cast construction ensure
reliability in any marine environment.
The GX620 utilises a 1000mAh Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery pack with an automatic
power saving mode, providing extended operating life without the worry of 'memory
effect' found with standard NiCad rechargeable batteries. A professional quality 'drop in'
quick charger and carry case are supplied as part of the standard package
