for boatradioVHF

Product overview
The IC-M430E is a fixed-mount marine VHF/DSC radio designed for installation in tight helm panels. It combines a high-visibility colour TFT display, built-in GNSS receiver/antenna (with external antenna option), NMEA 2000 and NMEA 0183-HS connectivity, and integrated hailer and foghorn functions with a manual and Class D DSC Distress Button.

Key features

• High-visibility colour TFT display with three selectable modes (Day, Day-Black, Night) for clear readability in varying light conditions.
• Compact slimline chassis that reduces installation depth while keeping standard flush-mount front dimensions.
• Built-in GNSS (GPS) receiver and antenna; external GNSS antenna supported for improved reception.
• NMEA 2000 and NMEA 0183-HS interfaces for system integration with chartplotters, AIS and onboard networks.
• 25 W audio output with built-in hailer and automatic foghorn; dedicated manual and Class D DSC Distress Button for safety operations.
• VSWR alert to monitor antenna performance and assist troubleshooting.
• Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) on transmit and receive to improve voice clarity in noisy maritime environments.
• Dualwatch and Tri-watch monitoring (Channel 16 and call channels) for simultaneous channel surveillance.
• Front-access flush mounting and support for remote microphone installation to ease retrofits and custom helm layouts.
