Comments about Uniden Uniden MHS450 Handheld VHF Radio:

Great little radio, long battery life, spare battery packet with 4 AAA batteries fits easily into a pocket. Like most belt clips it's a little difficult to get on and off your belt. Triple scan feature is very useful. Haven't used it on the kayak yet so not sure about the waterproof claim. Doesn't have the "scan lock" feature to recall what channel the last message was received on. look into radios with this feature if you use scan if not this radio is perfect.
