VHF MARINE TRANSCEIVER
IC-M85
A Marine and Land Mobile Radio Combined in One
Marine’s Smallest Waterproof Handheld
The M85 is the smallest, lightest, and toughest radio on the market today! The M85 is built to MIL-STD 810 and can withstand hazardous and inhospitable environments, both on land and at sea. The IP67 waterproof rating protects the radio even if dropped in water. Yacht and commercial customers like the M85 because of the 100 programmable land mobile channels, as well as the easy-to-use built-in voice scrambler for private communications. The M85 is full of the features you need, including an automated emergency alarm.
