M36 Floating Handheld VHF Radio
Is it different? You bet! It FLOATS, has a Clear Voice Boost feature, a true noise canceling microphone, and more!
Clear Voice Boost: In addition to manual adjustment, the radio itself adjusts speaker output level automatically according to the ambient sound pressure level so that you will not miss communications during a sudden burst of noise. The automatically set volume can be instantly overridden by manual operations including instant max volume / mute selection.
Noise Canceling Microphone: The sub-microphone on the rear panel inverts phase and cancels out ambient noise from the main microphone. As a result, the M36* reduces the affect of background noise (particularly trebly noise) from the transmitted signal and makes it easier to catch voice communication.
LOUD Button: When you need an instant “boost” in the volume, a simple push of the “LOUD” button gives you full volume immediately. In addition, holding the “LOUD” button mutes the audio output.
Other features include weather alert, Dual- and Tri-watch and optional waterproof/floating speakermic. It’s LOUD too! 700mAh (typical) audio output power—twice previous generation entry-class radios. Maximum-allowed six watts RF transmit power. Two-step power save function—stretch the battery charge to its limits. Very large backlit display and keypad—easy to use in foul weather!
