Digital camera reviews of Uniden Atlantis 250BK 16-Channel VHF Waterproof Two-Way Marine Radio

Digital camera Review: El Cheapo Sucky POS Hand-held VHF
Summary: 1 Stars

I bought this item a few years ago as a cheap hand-held VHF to use while on deck and while steering my Catalina 42. I am an experienced boat owner and have had many hand-held VHF radios in the past, including an ICOM, a Standard Horizon, and a West Marine (which is a Standard Horizon). The price for the Uniden Atlantis 250G was right at the time, but I was wrong in choosing this POS. I had it on board maybe 30 minutes and then I dropped it onto the cockpit floor while maneuvering into a slip. The ON-OFF-VOLUME switch shaft broke off! I could hear traffic on the channel, I could transmit, I could change channels and adjust the SQUELCH level, but I couldn't change the volume level and the only way to turn it on or off was to remove the battery pack. I just got through opening the thing up (I am an experienced journeyman marine electronics technician and former U.S. Navy Sonar Technician, among other things) and there's just no way I can repair this turkey! The only thing to do is to replace it with another one. At least the price here on Amazon is cheaper than what I paid for the original one, and when I get the new one, I'll have two 120v chargers, two belt clips, four battery packs, and two holders. Oh, and be careful buying the remote microphone/speaker as the jack on the cord is the wrong size, too!

Sound quality, sensitivity, and battery life seem to be pretty good.

One star. (Yuck!) Consider it a disposable, handheld vhf...

All USA, International, and Canada Channels

The Atlantis 250 covers all USA, International, and Canadian marine channels, keeping you up-to-date with all the latest marine activity.

All NOAA Weather Channels with Weather Alert

This radio comes preprogrammed with NOAA weather channels. The Emergency/Weather Alert allows it to function as a severe weather warning radio and will also alert you to any local or national emergencies. If the NOAA issues warning while this feature is turned On, the radio sounds an alert tone. You will then hear the emergency/weather broadcast.

Instant Channel 16/9/Triple Watch

Triple Watch mode monitors channels 16 and 9 for a signal while you listen to the currently selected channel. The marine radio checks channel 16 and 9 for activity every 2 seconds.

Memory Channel Scan

Automatically scan your programmed channels with Memory Channel Scan. Scanning starts from the lowest to highest channel and stops when it finds an active channel. It remains on that channel until the transmission ends, then resumes scanning after a two-second delay period.

JIS4/CFR46 Waterproof Level

Uniden Atlantis 250 VHF Hand Held Radio won't give up no matter how wet it gets. Whitecap splash, gusty spray, tidal wave, whatever, this radio can take it.
