Comments about Uniden Uniden Atlantis 250 VHF Handheld Radio:

I use this radio for sailing. Functions great! I have a hearing problem, so the best thing for me is the voice transmissions are clear and easy to understand. I don't think I could have picked a better hand held marine radio for the money.

Comments about Uniden Uniden Atlantis 250 VHF Handheld Radio:

This was for day sailing and cruising over a 5 year period ([@]and found it to be very reliable. It was doused with salt water spray dozens of times. Last week I dropped it overboard in about 5 feet of water an it took about half an hour to retrieve and does not seem to be working too well anymore. I see you can still get one for about $75 and I may just buy another one.

Comments about Uniden Uniden Atlantis 250 VHF Handheld Radio:

The AC and DC adaptors as well as female plug in radio rusted well within the warranty period. Their customer service did nothing saying it was due to salt water??? Even the AA battery insert rusted and the radio never got wet. Must be the salt air.

Comments about Uniden Uniden Atlantis 250 VHF Handheld Radio:

Look at the top end hand held radios and make a list of things you like. Then read the things this unit has. NO reason to pay double or triple when it is available in this unit. It has even more features than the company lists. Excellent radio.
