Thought I had better start a thread about Radios as I've gone to so much trouble getting one .
   I've always wanted my own VHF Marine radio ever since I done the course and got a certificate .I enjoy using the radio and often prefer to that position on the boat rather then Helm , or talking to the boat  from the control room .The funny thing is , is its illegal to use a VHF Marine radio on land  but because we are a declared SAR facility we have a base station and use handhelds on the beach alot for launching and recovery , safety , training and beach searches .
  We have 4 crew members who are booked into a radio course next month so the coming 3 weeks will see alot of radio work to give these guys an insight .
  Sure the boat has its own radios but its nice to have your own  :)
  It should be with me within the next week

You must have hankered for that radio real bad if you were willing to give up the Salt and the Joe Rodgers for it! :o
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools
