Icom’s new M37 handheld VHF radio offers 6 watts of RF output power and 700 megawatts of audio output. The Li-ion supplied battery pack provides more than 12 hours of operating time. In addition, Icom has also added a channel-history function that stores the last five channels for easy recall. The M37 comes with Icom’s AquaQuake draining feature and its Float’n Flash function, which allows the radio to float and be easily found due to a flashing red LED light and LCD/key backlight. The M37 weighs 10.3 ounces and costs $277.
