The Icom IC-M37 is a rugged 6 W handheld VHF marine radio designed for reliable communications on the water.
Its slim, easy-to-grip body and large buttons make it straightforward to operate, even while wearing gloves. A powerful 700mW internal speaker helps incoming calls remain clear in noisy onboard environments, while the supplied BP-296 rechargeable Li-ion battery provides approximately 12 hours of operation.
For demanding marine environments, the IC-M37 offers IP57 dust and waterproof protection and Icom’s Float’n Flash function. If the radio is dropped overboard, it floats while activating a flashing light and audible alarm to help locate it. AquaQuake technology can then help clear water from the speaker grille.
With instant access to Channel 16, Dualwatch and Tri-watch capability, priority and normal scanning, channel history and up to 6 W RF output, the IC-M37 is well suited to recreational boating, fishing, sailing and other onboard marine communications.

Thanks for the great service
Serge
good
Great service always a pleasure to deal with
Have used D2N headsets for years (borrowed from others) and finally got around to buying my own kit. Excellent sales guidance and support and having my own gear only confirmed the quality and performance. Delivery was prompt and everything arrived well packaged and protected.
The storage bag is a brillant addition to keep everything together.
The D2N Drivers Microphone Kit fits perfectly into our Stilo Helmet. The sound quality was by far superior to our previous kit, and I would highly recommend the team from D2N Technology Solutions to anyone who is in the market for either a helmet kit or a full team fitout. Their prices allow you to have the very best in in-car communications at an affordable price point. They also have leasing options available. Highly Recommended.
Great service
Professional, prompt service! When it comes to motorsport and things need to be sorted in time before races & rallies, D2N came to our add without delay, checked all our radio issues which have haunted us for too long, ironed out all the bugs, now we're back-on-track!
Hi, they work really well, the club would like to purchase 2 more of them please. Can you do a deal for 2 more with the connecters to GME please.
Good price, quick delivery, seems like good quality for the price.
The staff was wonderful and I really enjoy the product. It’s easy to use and simple to do and the program is easy and simple.

Works great, instantly sent to me.
The products supplied by D2N was the best in the business. We used these items for the first time around Mount Panorama, Bathurst which is known for poor coverage and interference. Their products were top notch, perfect range and quality of voice around the whole circuit, super impressed!
Great service and delivery, helpful, technical assistance.
