M34 - It floats!
Introducing the world's first 5w VHF marine transceiver that floats! If you drop the M34 into water, the radio comes up to the surface so that you can easily retrieve it from out of the water. As the radio has a rugged submersible body, it will keep on working even after it has been submerged. Reliable marine communications that won't let you down in or out of the boat!
When floating in calm water, the base of the radio is level with the water surface.
First as a 5w VHF marine handheld transceiver as researched by Icom as of November 2006.
1m depth for 30 minutes, equivalent to IPX7. The M34 is not designed to be used underwater.
