Icom or Tait

[matt131]

Hello,

I do realize this is an Icom forum but I am between purchasing the Icom IC-F60V or the Tait TP-8115. I am looking for a good waterproof rugged radio. Does anyone have an opinion on the two radios as to which would be the better unit.

Thanks,

Thats a tough one. The F60 is a more compact unit, but I like the angled knob of the Tait. All things being equal I would just about have to toss a coin.

The Tait does have more signalling options, but do you really need them?

You should be able to find them for TP8115-H600 TP8115 Portable Conventional 4Key 450-530M about 625 list, 500 or 525 street price, with lithium ion batter and fast charger.

Tait has most of their prices to the dealers broken down, radio, battery, charger, antenna all have to be added up together, and some dealers list them the same way so make sure you are getting all the parts.
