West Marine Vhf-250 Multiband Vhf, Am/fm, Air, Frs Excellent Condition on 2040-parts.com
Winter Haven, Florida, US
You are looking at a RARE West Marine (manufactured by Uniden but can't be found anymore) VHF-250
This radio receives AM, FM, VHF, AM Air-band, FRS
This radio transmits AND receives VHF, and FRS (Family Radio Service)
This thing is great for listening to air traffic and also works great for weather. It communicates very well at 5-watts on the marine VHF frequencies. I've never used it for the FRS band (these are the yuppies with fanny-packs at Disney that have the walkie talkies their wives make them carry). It does work though and actually looks cooler than the pink or yellow plastic walkie talkies said whipped yup-husbands have to carry.
It comes with the following:
- Radio
- spare battery pack (can be loaded with alkaline AAA's)
- Charge-dock
- Original Manual
- Wrist Strap & Belt clip
- 12v DC charge cord (2)
It is missing the following:
- Original Box
- 110v AC/DC converter (any 12v output converter will work to power the dock though)
OH YEAH, NO RESERVE so Happy Bidding, Thanks for looking

Jaguar XKR-S GT IS coming to the UK – just 10 available
Wed, 31 Jul 2013The Jaguar XKR-S GT (pictured at Goodwood FoS) will be available in the UK At the New York Auto Show in the spring, the Jaguar XKR-S GT was revealed as a track inspired, but road legal, version of the XKR-S to be sold in limited numbers and only for the US market. At first we thought the XKR-S GT was destined for both the US and UK, but it quickly became clear that Jaguar intended their XKR-S GT just for the US. Which seemed a shame.
VW XL1 SEV to take on the hillclimb at Goodwood Festival of Speed
Fri, 28 Jun 2013The super frugal – and super slippery – VW XL1 (pictured) will take on the Goodwood hillclimb Visitors to the Goodwood Festival of Speed can spend endless hours watching a seemingly endless precession of supercars take on the hillclimb. But one supercar this year will be a bit different. Volkswagen are taking their super slippery, super frugal supercar – the VW XL1 SEV – to Goodwood next month and are planning on taking it up the hillclimb in the capable hands of former F1 champion Jacky Ickx.
Jaguar ramps up interest for the XF Sportbrake
Sat, 07 Jan 2012Jaguar XF Sportbrake - now you can register your interest The Jaguar XF Sportbrake (XF Estate) has been teased a couple of times so far, but now Jaguar are taking registrations of interest for the new XF. It’s not huge news that the Jaguar XF Sportbrake is being dangled again, but it’s an indication that the launch of the XF Estate is getting closer. When Jaguar first officially confirmed the XF Sportbrake back in November, they did so by creating a new Twitter account – @sportbrake - from which they’ve now acquired around 1,000 followers and, apart from responding to followers’ Tweets, have been regaling us with enigmatic Tweets like ‘The House in the Trees reflects nature in its balanced curves’ and ‘… few people achieve it… have you?’ Jaguar followed that up with a ‘Santa Special’ with Father Christmas loading presents in the back of the XF Sportbrake – still camouflaged and still with ‘@sportbrake’ plastered on the side.
