OK with all this talk of being prepared I went out today and invested in a handheld radio from West Marine. It is both/all of a VHF, GPS, navigation, DSC radio... When I got to the store my intent was to purchase a ARC PLB (ResQLink) and a VHF radio, at least that is before I saw the VHF/GPS radio at the price for the ARC alone. I bought the Standard Horizon HX851, here is the review: The Standard Horizon HX851 floats, has an internal GPS, can navigate, make DSC calls, and display a strobe light. That is a bunch of functionality in a small package and probably explains why this is such a hot selling radio. Thoughts?

I'm charging it up now and hope NOT to have to use it tomorrow!

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.
