The radio is engineered to survive and function in the extreme environmental conditions common in marine emergencies and brings the latest Search and Rescue technology to the marketplace. GMDSS (Global Marine Distress and Safety System) is a multi-function communications system that can automate co-ordinate and facilitate the Search and Rescue process. The IC-GM1600 features waterproof construction, designed to IP-X7 specifications with a new, \"Speed Water Removal\" function that quickly sheds water from the speaker system, assuring you sharp, clear communications even in the worst conditions. All knobs are sized for quick operation and the large, well-labelled buttons feature a positive action \"feel\" with a programmable beep tone for sure operation. The IC-GM1600's high-intensity LCD read out offers high-contrast, wide-angle readability with 4 levels of contrast and 3 levels of backlighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSurvival Craft Radio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GM1600 meets temperature, thermal shock, vibration, and drop resistant (from 1 m height) requirements.
