Cobra MR-HH400XVP VHF Waterproof Marine Radio Specifications

An essential tool for recreational boaters, the handheld Cobra MR HH400X VP marine VHF radio lets captains instantly communicate with other vessels, marinas, bridges, and even the U.S. Coast Guard, making it ideal for everything from mooring requests to emergency calls. The radio boasts channels for U.S., Canada, and international waters, giving users access to any of the three channel maps established for these areas, along with 10 weather channels run by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The NOAA channels provide 24-hour weather updates in all 50 states, ensuring that you're never caught unaware by a rainstorm, blizzard, or heavy winds. The radio even includes an emergency weather alert that sounds an alarm when threatening conditions--such as a tropical storm or tsunami--is gathering. And thanks to the dual power marine transceivers (1 watt and 5 watts), you'll be able to communicate over both short and long distances depending on your needs.

To further protect boaters in emergency situations, owners will enjoy instant access to channel 9 (the primary calling channel) and channel 16 (reserved for emergency and distress calls only). The remainder of the channels are accessible via the 10-channel memory, making it simple to switch stations for lengthier communication (channel 9 should only be used for first contact) or to scan stations. When you're not calling others, the MR HH400X sits in standby mode, where it monitors three channels at once: channel 16 and two user-selected channels.

Boaters will also appreciate the scan function, which scans all the channels to find conversations in progress, and the memory scan function, which performs the same task but only for preprogrammed stations. Additional features include a large, easy-to-read LCD display; illuminated function keys; a signal strength meter that shows the strength of incoming and outgoing signals; and a button/key lock that preserves settings. And to top it off, the VHF radio is even submersible for up to 30 minutes in 1 meter of water, so you needn't worry when conditions get rough.

The radio, which measures 2.2 by 5.5 by 1.4 inches (W x H x D), is bundled with a value pack of complementary items, including six rechargeable NiMH batteries, a desktop charger, a 12-volt vehicle adapter, an AC wall adapter, a swiveling belt clip, and a wrist strap. It's also backed by a three-year warranty on parts and labor.
