Review: Looks and works great. - This was very easy to install and is very easy to use. Be aware that you will need an antenna before using it. We didn't realize that a separate antenna was "required" and thought it may work for our needs without one. But the instructions say not to operate without an antenna. But the sales information on the page didn't mention that. I now think all of these style of radios are probably the same in that aspect and we simply didn't know. This is my first mounted VHF radio as I have only used hand held before this. Live and learn.
Review: Perfect - Bought this as a gift for my hubby. Should have bought the antenna also.. it needs a certain kind. Nice quality easy to use. Good signal. Like the white color. Small which is perfect

## Questions & Answers

**Q: WHAT IS CLASS-D**
A: Both category A and D radios can send and receive digitally encoded distress calls on channel 70, which is reserved exclusively for digital communications. Category A radios, however have two separate receivers, with one constantly tuned to channel 70. Category A radios are therefore more flexible and capable of delivering advanced communication capabilities.With the press of a button, all DSC equipped VHF radios can send a distress call in digital form on channel 70. The call, sent in much less than one second, includes your unique identification number (MMSI) and if the radio is connected to a GPS or Loran C, the precise location of your boat. The distress call will continue to be sent until it is answered by another station. The station hearing the call will likely call your radio on channel 16 or, in the case of the Coast Guard on 22A and begin the process of bringing you the help you need. Having a highly automatic way of making your need for assistance known has obvious advantages.

**Q: I have a cobra marine radio f57b.  Can I use the radio without requesting a mmsi #?**
A: Yes

**Q: How do i activate my radio**
A: Go to 
https://www.boatus.com/MMSI/MMSI/Home 
and register for an MMSI number.  Once the MMSI number has been obtained it must be entered into the radio.  Push the "CALL/SET" to enter the DSC menu then look for the MMSI entry option.  Follow the prompts.

**Q: Is this radio waterproof/water resistant?  It doesn't say anything in the product description.**
A: resistant, I have hit it with a hose while cleaning, seems like a good buy. I use it 30 miles off shore salt water.

Purchased this VHS Marine Radio for our boat. Excellent quality, clear sound, easy to use. If you're in need of boat speakers, the Boss Marine Audio Systems speakers are a good find, quality and price as well. Happy with purchases.
