Uniden MHS157UV: The Ultimate Hybrid Marine & Land Radio

The Uniden MHS157UV is a game-changer for adventurers who transition between the water and the shore. As a dual-band handheld radio, it combines VHF Marine and UHF CB capabilities into a single, rugged device. Whether you are coordinating with a marina, calling for help at sea, or communicating with a 4WD convoy on land, the MHS157UV ensures you only need one radio to stay connected.

Key Features

  • Dual-Band Versatility: This is Australia’s first handheld to offer both VHF Marine channels (for offshore safety) and 80 UHF CB channels (for land-based communication). It is the perfect all-in-one solution for boaters who also enjoy camping, hiking, or 4WDing.

  • Floating & Waterproof: Rated to the JIS7/IPX7 waterproof standard, this radio can be submerged in 1 meter of water for up to 30 minutes. Most importantly, it features a floating design and high-visibility yellow casing, making it easy to retrieve if it accidentally goes overboard.

  • Power Boost Technology: Effortlessly switch between power levels to save battery. The dedicated Transmitter Boost Key allows you to instantly jump to maximum power (5W for VHF / 2.5W for UHF) when you need your signal to reach as far as possible.

  • Dual & Triple Watch Modes: Monitor up to three channels simultaneously—including the emergency Channel 16, the weather channel, and your primary working channel—ensuring you never miss a critical update.

  • Rugged Build for Local Conditions: Designed and engineered in Japan specifically for the harsh Australian and New Zealand environments, featuring glow-in-the-dark seals for easy operation at night.

  • Comprehensive Battery Options: Includes a high-capacity rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery for up to 12 hours of operation, plus an alkaline battery tray for backup power using standard AAA batteries.

  • Frequency Bands: VHF Marine (5.0W max) and UHF CB (2.5W max).
