I'm running 2 Standard Horizon fixed 25w, separate antennas and a floating 6w hand held, and make a point of using each from time to time. This discussion is a good reminder to replace the 2 16 year old fixed units. Hand held unit is 3 years old.

I noted the suggestions about a second hand held unit....a good thought, keeping one in the ditch bag in case the other on in the charging station is forgotten in a rush to get over the side.

Useful discussion......
