HH Deals?

[Allan]

I'm on my way to the pub so can't do any searches until later. There has been some disscusion on here about good/best HH VHF units. I need to buy one before 11th August. Does anyone know of any mega deals, either web or phone? I would like 5w, waterproof, all the channels including 77 and 80, plus if possible the chance to use normal AA bateries if the rechargables die.
Thanks in advance.
Allan

Let's see if I can get this in before anyone else! Standard Horizon HX270E matches your stated requirements. See Malthouse on these forums and mention code YBMF to get a discount. No connection to the business, just VERY happy with the service, Martin! Cheers

Standard Horizon HX270E...

The HX270E would do the job. £85 inc UK delivery from JG Tech or about the same from Malthouse Marine (but you need to ask for a YBW discount).

The code did not work but I phoned Malthouse and bought one over the phone. £94-30 including VAT and delivery by first class post. (A bit of a contradicition in terms!) I'm happy with the service so far.

Re: Why?

Sorry, slip of the finger! It was on the website for £89-00 and he gave me £4-70 0ff! So I saved and supported a fellow forum user. Also the other website seemed to be having problems when I was on it.
