edisondotme Posted June 24 Report Posted June 24 Hoping some keen eyes can identify the radios in these photos. I'm certain that they're VHF capable since they can access Ch. 16 marine distress freq. (156.8 MHz). Quote
Raybestos Posted June 24 Report Posted June 24 Sorry, this left me hanging, too. My gut tells me this "might" be an Icom product. Not sure if it is or not and not sure what model if it is. Edit: I don't think it is the exact model, but it looks similar to this. https://www.westmarine.com/icom-m25-floating-handheld-vhf-radio-20816591.html?&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=[ADL][PLA] Electronics %26 Navigation_ Control&utm_content=autoag0000x21019817508x20816591&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwsuSzBhCLARIsAIcdLm6UnSdYHqjMjU4kjsh8GqP5Ymq9Dwfg_N7UO3JY24gEGz-tpp37MVgaAiTREALw_wcB If you don't mind my asking, is this related to a poaching or trespassing issue?

Unlike the other one I posted above, this particular radio has three buttons in the center vertical column of the keypad, where the first one I posted only had two, there. Quote

Good try, but the pic ones have the screen in the center, while the m37 is at the top. With that though, the general layout, how the speaker grill looks, and general shape/aesthetics seem to match, you might be on to it as an ICOM or a generic ICOM knockoff trying to look like one. EDIT Noticed the top radio in the three he posted is definitely a different radio than the other two Raybestos 1 Quote
