The VHF55s Plus is constructed with an ergonomic, non-slip rubberized grip, and is submersible to the JIS-7 standard for maximum durability. This unit is built with a large, high-visibility LCD display, and includes all USA, International, and Canadian Marine channels, as well as 10 weather channels with NOAA weather alerts. This hand-held radio allows you to select between five- or one-watt transmit power levels, depending on whether you need to save battery power or achieve a greater range, and includes rotary squelch and volume for fast, accurate tuning.

The VHF55s Plus features a fast access channel 16/9 hot key, dual and tri-watch monitor for critical channels, and a backlight for both the display and keys for nighttime operation. This radio also features a signal-strength meter that indicates transmit and receive signal, and a battery-level indicator that shows you your remaining power. This compact unit even has allows normal scan to watch all channels, program scan to watch all memory channels, and a priority scan on 16 critical channels. As a convenience feature, the VHF55s requires six AA alkaline batteries but includes automatic power-saving circuitry to preserve your battery life, and a key-lock that prevents accidental setting changes. The VHF55s Plus comes with the manufacturer's three-year limited warranty.
