That deal was for a West Marine brand labeled VHF 550 or 650 and get a Mariner 8300 VHF Antenna for $1. But, that sale is over. It ended 3/30/08
I've always used either Standard Horizon or ICOM in the past. I just picked up this Ray54. Looks like it'll be a decent unit.

Hey I actually took advantage of that sale at west marine last wekk. It was buy a VHF radio, get an antenna for $1. Total came out to be $160 with tax and all for the antenna and radio. Before they entered the discount into the computer it was $226 for both. Thats a good deal in my book. Of course i only stopped in west marine to get an antenna mount for my AM/FM antenna, but how can you pass on a deal like that. Its a good radio also, west marine rebrands Uniden as there own radios, so its quality built. Even has the channel selectors in the microphone, as well as being able to hook up to a GPS system.
