Your latest catalogue has this priced at 69.95 yet here it's 72.89
Why are the prices in your catalogue cheaper than on the website?

Sometimes prices are different due to country of destination and the local taxation. I am from Slovenia and the price I see is 71.71€.
Otherwise the unit works fine on short distance, battery life is great and definetely worth the money, even 72.89 ;)

German VAT is 19%, slovenian is 22%... so the math is about right.

Thanks for the info about Vat, but I'm in Finland and not Slovenia

So (basic math):
If price in Germany (incl. 19%VAT) is 69.95, then net price is 58.78. If the price you see in Finland is 72.89, then the applicable VAT in Finland must be 24%, right? So you can either travel to Germany and buy it there or complain to your goverment about too high taxes...

The Small WIncher will not fit a 60mm winch drum, the minimum size is 64mm. Unfortunately it is not going to work.

Thanks Christian, I am the proud owner of two "oversized rubber grommets" that I cannot use. Pity I did not know this earlier.

Thanks for the answer Arne, but I asked the question against the COMMANDMIC HM-195B model. I can see the other model has the Distress button.

I have an ICOM IC M503, the command mic cable has frayed badly, will this mic work with this unit?
