The GX1850W is a fixed mount VHF radio that is NMEA 2000 compatible. It offers easy plug and play connectivity to the NMEA bus, allowing for seamless integration with gps data and DSC calling between compatible devices.
One of its key features is its compatibility with Standard Horizon's second station microphone RAM4, model SSM-70. This means that all functions on the main radio can now be controlled on the second station microphone, including radio functions, DSC functions, and intercom features between the radio and the second station.
The GX1850W also features an Easy to Operate menu system, designed with the operator in mind. This new menu system is more intuitive than ever, making DSC calling and programming easier than ever before.
Installation of the GX1850W is a breeze, thanks to its ultra compact and slim design. With a rear case depth of only 3.3 inches, it takes up half the depth of comparable VHF radios on the market. This rear case design also allows for flexible mounting options, whether flush mounting in tight areas or bracket mounting on the dash.
Standard Horizon offers a 3-year waterproof warranty for the GX1850W. If the radio fails for any reason during normal use within the first 3 years of ownership, it will be repaired or replaced free of charge. Additionally, their Lifetime Flat Rate and Customer Loyalty Service Programs will cover any failures after the initial 3-year warranty period, as long as the original purchaser owns the radio.
