ACR SR203 VHF Handheld Survival Radio

The ACR SR203 VHF Handheld Survival Radio is an FCC approved marine radio designed for reliable performance in emergency and professional marine environments. Featuring a rugged build with laser etched control buttons and a high contrast backlit digital display, it remains easy to operate even in low light conditions. Once activated, the radio automatically tunes to emergency Channel 16 and allows distress calls with a single push button for rapid response. Powered by a non rechargeable lithium battery, the SR203 delivers over 16 hours of exceptional battery life at extremely low temperatures and exceeds GMDSS requirements thanks to its highly efficient transmitter. An innovative battery protection tab ensures the battery remains fully charged until needed, allowing the radio to stay permanently attached and instantly ready for use by simply breaking the red protective tab. For everyday operation, an optional lithium polymer rechargeable battery and rapid charger are available. The radio includes 21 channels, 2.5 watt output power, user replaceable battery capability, and comes complete with a wall mount, lanyard, and instruction manual. Sold as an individual unit; California Proposition 65 warnings apply and manufacturer support should be contacted for any issues or concerns.
