New entry level VHF receiver from ICOM

Icom Australia has recently released a new entry-level marine VHF transceiver into the Australian market. It offers superb features at an affordable price.

The new transceiver, the IC-M411, completes Icom’s range of marine communication products, with the company now having a marine product to suit the budget of any boating enthusiast. Rest assured that a more affordable product does not mean lower quality, as the IC-M411, like all Icom radios, is still made in Japan, adhering to strict quality standards.

The transceiver boasts a strong IPX7 design, meaning the unit is waterproof to a depth of one metre for 30 minutes. Powerful class-D DSC is also featured in the transceiver, meaning the unit has a dedicated DSC receiver.

Other features include Icom’s outstanding “AquaQuake” draining function, which emits a buzzing noise to clear water from the speaker, favourite channel function and dual/tri-watch functions.

The unit can also be connected to Icom’s MXA-5000 AIS (Automatic Identification System) receiver, allowing on-screen visual marine safety with a compatible chart plotter.

With a recommended retail price of AU $374, now the superior quality of Icom is affordable enough for all to enjoy!
