Transmit power varies by model. Handhelds commonly have switchable low/medium/high settings (examples: 0.5/1/3 W and 1/3/6 W). Many fixed-mount marine radios offer selectable 1 W or 25 W outputs, and a few two-way VHF units list 5 W.
The selection includes floating handheld VHF radios and fixed-mount VHF marine radios designed for installation aboard vessels.
Waterproof ratings vary by model. Examples include IPX4, IPX7, and IPX8; some IPX8 units are specified as submersible to about 4.9 ft (30 minutes).
Radios include NOAA/weather features with multiple weather channels (examples show 10–12 channels) and S.A.M.E. weather alert support to notify users of location-specific severe weather.
Available radios cover U.S., Canadian, and international marine channels; some listings explicitly include the latest 4‑digit channels and Canadian B channels.
