Icom have now entered the ultra compact VHF market with the IC-M330GE. This small space saving radio can now fit in those tight spaces where a traditional full sized radio cannot. It may be small in size but is certainly not lacking in features. Ultra Compact Body, Flexible Installation  The compact IC-M330GE measures only 156.5 (W) × 66.5 (H) ×110.1 (D) mm making it ideal for a cockpit where space is limited. Intuitive User Interface  A combination of the directional keypad and soft keys provides simple, smooth operation. Most used functions are assigned to soft keys for quick one push function access. New Speaker Delivers Dynamic, Clear Audio  A newly designed speaker delivers distortion-free clear audio even at full volume. It provides dynamic and clear audio over a wide bass and treble range. Class-Leading Receiver Performance  The IC-M330GE’s receiver provides reliable communication in RF busy environment like a marina. (Selectivity and IMD: more than 70 dB) Built-in Class D DSC  The radio monitors CH 70 continuously, even while you are receiving another channel. DSC functions include distress, individual, group, all ships, urgency, safety, position request/report, polling request and DSC test calls. Built in GPS Receiver and External GPS Antenna  The GPS receiver provides your location, bearing and speed by using information from GPS, GLONASS and SBAS. The acquired position information can be used for DSC calls. An external GPS antenna is supplied to maximise coverage.  IPX7 waterproof (1 m depth of water for 30 minutes) AquaQuake™ prevents audio degradation from a water-logged speaker Common NMEA interface for external GPS/NAV connection MA-500TR Class B AIS transponder compatible Tag scan and favourite channel functions Dual/tri-watch function for monitoring CH16 and/or call channel Priority scan function Display and keypad backlighting External speaker connection 3-digit or 4-digit channel display selectable NMEA0183 input and output UK Marina channels Self adhesive external GPS/GLONASS antenna Specifications Size W x H x D: 156.5 x 66.5 x 110.1mm Cutout W x H: 137 x 51mm Weight (approx.) 0.8kg Power supply: 10.8-15.6 V DC Waterproof: IPX7 External GPS/GLONASS antenna size W x H x D: 37 x 37 x 10mm External GPS/GLONASS antenna cable length:  5m                                                   In The Box IC-M330GE VHF Mounting Bracket & Knobs Mic Hanger and screws Fused power cable Simple Flush mount kit GPS/GLONASS external antenna

Great compact radio. And the GPS is free from the plotter. Installing was a 5 minute job. Putting in the MMSI number was a doudle.
