STANDARD HORIZON HX870E

Unparalleled Safety – On and Off the Water: The Standard Horizon HX870E DSC VHF radio sets new standards for safety and performance in buoyant VHF radios with GPS. With its integrated 66-channel WAAS GPS receiver, it allows you to transmit a DSC emergency call with your ship's position or navigate to a waypoint. Even in the event of an unintentional immersion, the device automatically sends out a distress signal (SOS) to alert rescue services.

Intuitive Operation for Stress-Free Communication: The large 2.3" full-dot matrix LCD and the symbol-based menu make the HX870E a breeze to operate. All important functions, such as DSC calls, position reports, waypoint and route navigation, and navigation to a DSC emergency call, can be performed with just a few presses of a button. This allows you to maintain an overview even in hectic situations.

Robust Design for Use in Harsh Conditions: The HX870E is a real "workhorse". The diecast housing with IPx8 protection class (submersible to 1.5 m for 30 minutes) and the 6 watts of transmit power ensure reliable performance even in harsh conditions. The powerful 1800 mAh Li-Ion battery guarantees long operating times, even on longer boat trips.
