5 Product description
The JHS-207 is a ruggedly designed radio made for easy operation. It is a portable
survival craft two-way VHF radio which is possible to operate using one hand, even
when wearing gloves. The high contrast graphical display including integrated back
lighting of the display and keys are very effective for visibility and usage in low
light conditions.
It is also resistant to oil, seawater and sunlight. This radio is compact in size with
smooth edges to avoid damage to clothing or a raft. The highly visible orange
housing is made from glass reinforced polycarbonate.
The JHS-207 GMDSS (emergency mode) radio is waterproof down to 1 meter and
floats in freshwater, battery included. The radio is designed with a self draining
loudspeaker. The JHS-207 is only completely waterproof when the antenna and
jack cover are assembled on the radio correctly.
