Standard Horizon HX460S Hand
Held VHF Radio
Don't let the size of the HX460S mislead you. While the HX460S
is a mere 3.5 inches tall it delivers a full 5 watts of talking power. The unit
featues two other battery extending power settings of 2.5 Watts and 1
Watt.
DROP IT OR DUNK IT-THE HX460S IS DESIGNED TO TAKE IT
The HX460S utilizes a high impact, non-corrosive die-cast case and chassis.
This unique case insures the HX460S will withstand the physical abuse a Handheld
VHF receives from being dropped or banged on the deck of a boat. Using the
HX460S in the rain or in a life boat is not a issue as it can take submersions
of 3' for 30 minutes.
CHARGE THE BATTERY WHEN AND WHERE YOU
WANT
A whooping 1100 mAh Lithium-ion battery is standard equipment with the
HX460S. The lithium-ion Battery provides extended hours of operation between
charges. Unlike other rechargeable batteries, Lithium-ion batteries do not
develop a memory when charged before being completely discharged. Additionally,
our Lithium-ion battery will hold its charge even when the radio is unused for
months longer than a traditional NiCad. When it is time to recharge you battery,
the 110VAC or 12VDC quick charger (3 hours or less) will get you back on the air
quickly. Finally, there is no surprise when the battery does require a charge:
The HX460S features a unique battery life indicator on the LCD that workd like a
dynamic "gas guage," indicating when the battery needs to be
charged.
ESSENTIAL OPERATIONAL FEATURES
Although the
HX460S is small in overall size, it features a large LCD window with tall, wide
digits and bold information flags that are easy to read and identify. Both the
LCD and the keypad are backlit for best visibility at
night.
BUILT BETTER, BACKED BETTER
Because the HX460S is
built better, it's backed better. If the STANDARD HORIZON HX460S VHF radio fails
for any reason (including water damage) during normal use in the first three
years of ownership, STANDARD HORIZON will repair or replace it free, without
hassle or charges. If it fails any time thereafter in normal use, for as long as
the original purchaser owns the radio, STANDARD HORIZON's Lifetime Flat Rate
Program will cover it. The Flat Rate is determined at the time of original
purchase.
