Product Description
Stay safe while navigating the coastal waters with the Standard Horizon Quantum fixed-mount VHF radio. Specifically designed to withstand the day-in, day-out punishment of the harshest marine environments, the Quantum is factory programmed with all U.S., Canadian, and international channels, keeping you fully informed of all the latest oceanic activity. At the same time, the radio picks up 10 weather channels from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA), so you can learn about approaching storms or hurricanes well before they hit. And because it's nearly impossible to monitor the NOAA channels at all times, the radio includes an audible weather alert tone and visual alarm. The variety of channels and functions make this an essential tool for communicating with other boaters, marinas, the Coast Guard, and commercial towing companies, all of whom can offer live-saving assistance during a crisis.
The Quantum is distinguished by such features as a submersible black housing; oversized knobs for quick volume, squelch, and channel adjustments; a large four-line alphanumeric LCD display; and a host of scanning modes, including Dual Watch (monitors one user-selected channel at the same time as emergency channel 16) and Priority Scan (scans any combination of channels along with a priority channel). Users will also dig the 30-watt loud hailer, which offers four preprogrammed fog signals, bells, and whistles. In fact, the Quantum is so advanced that it lets you control the fog horn frequency.
The Quantum comes with a high-quality microphone that meets the same strict waterproof standards as the radio. More significantly, the microphone incorporates Standard Horizon's ClearVoice noise reduction technology, which eliminates unwanted background noises such as engines and wind. The resulting "loud and clear" transmissions are crisp and easy to understand the first go round, adding to the safety of all involved. At the same time, users can create two additional VHF stations through the same antenna by connecting a pair of separately sold Remote Access Microphones (RAM+). Each submersible microphone includes its own oversized display and keys and lets the user remotely control all VHF, PA, and fog functions from the fly bridge, cockpit, tower, or elsewhere. RAM+ microphones also negate the need for a dedicated intercom system within your boat, as you can easily communicate between the main receiver and both microphones.
The Quantum also meets the internationally recognized requirements for Digital Selective Calling (DSC), which allows you to send a distress signal at the touch of a button or exchange position information with other boats or stations. DSC activates a continuous, unattended "mayday" signal that identifies your vessel, reports your latitude and longitude, and gives the time. Furthering the Quantum's safety reputation is its GPS compatibility. When connected to a GPS position receiver, the Quantum can send your GPS position to other boats in an emergency, or it can poll the GPS location of another vessel and display it on your LCD screen. And if a GPS chart plotter is connected, the Quantum will send the information to the plotter's display, helping you easily navigate to the location of the polled vessel. The function is obviously a great time-saver in a crisis, but it's also ideal for tracking down friends or locating a hot fishing spot.
Other details include a front-projecting 2.8-inch waterproof speaker that easily trumps the sound of a boat engine; a dedicated WX key for checking the local weather report; and an A/B key that delivers quick access to any two channels (similar to the presets on a car stereo). The radio, which measures 9.06 by 3.56 by 5.91 inches (W x H x D), is backed by a three-year warranty.
