Standard Horizon is renowned for producing some of the best, and most reliable marine radios.  They are now adding a new Class D DSC VHF radio to their range, the GX1500E - small and compact, yet complete with all the necessary features and functions, as well as a very appealing price tag.

The launch of the new 25 Watt GX1500E increases the opportunities available for Standard Horizon.  Its size means that it may be installed on smaller craft, such as RIBS and sports boats, yet it's still ideal for larger motorboats and yachts.  The GX1500E boasts one of the largest alphanumeric LCD screens available in a radio of this size, with a big rotary channel selector knob.  Also, by adding the optional RAM+ remote control microphone, it becomes a complete dual-station radio, with the option to communicate and send a DSC distress call from two separate onboard locations.

There's customizable channel naming, allowing users to change the channel name for greater ease of use and better channel recognition, plus straightforward, one-button access to Channel 16, along with versatile user-programmable scanning, priority scan and dual watch facility.  Position, date and time may also be displayed, additionally, when interfaced with a GPS or chart plotter users may privately poll and display another vessel's position on the display screen. 

The front panel of the GX1500E is waterproof (IPX7), making it ideal for smaller craft where spray is likely, and customers also have the added reassurance of the radio being covered by a 3-year waterproof warranty.
