Just wanted some input on handheld radio's, probably will purchase one this year and need some opinions....

I'm looking at the New Icom, the one that floats.
Icom M34.

 

[MrNovember]

I'd like to hear from a few guys that already own them, which brands they own and are they satisfied with them...

I use an Icom handheld (not sure of the model, its one that a lot of guys have) and its done very well. I've put it through its paces, serving duty both in the summer and in the winter when I'm out on the bay duck hunting- definitely wouldn't hesitate to buy another

Stick with an ICOM or STANDARD and you can't go wrong.

I have the IC-M88 and have friends with the the newer M-34 (Floater). The 34 is bigger than my M-88 but still small enough to use as a PFD clip-on or in a kayak. The M-88 is more $$, but can be converted to FRS if you are into hunting, camping, hiking , etc. The LI Ion batteries can't be beat!
