How Your CobraMarine VHF Radio Works

This radio is a battery-powered portable transceiver for use afloat. It gives you 

two-way vessel-to-vessel and vessel-to-shore station communications, primarily 

for safety and secondarily for navigation and operational purposes. With it, you 

can call for help, get information from other boaters, talk to lock or bridge tenders, 

and make radiotelephone calls to anywhere in the world through a marine operator.

Besides two-way communications, the radio can provide quick access to receive 

all the NOAA (National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration) weather

channels and alert you to weather emergencies with a tone on a weather channel 

you can select for your area.
