Once the radio (me as well) was covered in salt. Later as I was rinsing the red light started to flash so I can confirm that even that feature works. .
It's on my inflatable life jacket.

clearer voice and signal than twice as expensive simrad. very satisfied!
Unfortunately, the main operating instructions are only available in English. My inquiry was responded to. Nevertheless, ICOM only sent the English version again. The German version is available as a download to print out yourself.
Since I work as a skipper, I ordered two of these handheld radios. I am very happy with it. The voice quality is good, the battery always lasted a long time and it is also robust. would take it again
While the other participants in our flotilla always had to go to the main radio when entering the port, I stood comfortably at the helm with the IC-M25 in hand and communicated with the lead skipper on the quay. The device is well made, light and the battery lasts a long time. I would buy it again.
I have not tested it on the water yet. It seems to me that it is an excellent product, very technical. I still have to discover all its possibilities. You have to look for the record on the internet. Sincerely, Jean-Daniel
