Unit
Description
The VHF 725 is a 5 watt marine VHF communications
transceiver in a convenient handheld package.
A keypad located on the front of the unit provides one-
hand control of communication features. The knobless
design allows push-button Squelch and Volume adjustment.
A single button press provides a manual Squelch Override
function. Tri-Watch monitoring mode allows simultaneous
monitoring of emergency channel (16), calling channel (9)
and a channel selected by the user. The channel 16/9 key
allows you to toggle between emergency and calling
channels.
A 1” high by 1-3/8” wide LCD display provides indica-
tion of all features and functions of the VHF 725. The scan
feature allows the operator to select up to 10 channels for
continuous monitoring in any combination of U.S.A.,
Canadian, and International bands.
The weather channel key toggles between regular
channels and weather channels. It enables the weather alert
mode when pressed and held for more than one second. The
high/low key toggles the transmitter power level from
between five watts and one watt. When held for more than
one second, it locks and unlocks the “Key Lock” function to
prevent inadvertent changing of unit settings and modes.
The power key turns the unit off and on and, when
pressed briefly after the unit is powered on, enables the
display backlighting feature and illuminates the keys on the
front of the unit. The weather/regular channel key enables or
disables the weather alert function.
Small size and light weight characterize the portability of
the GARMIN VHF 725.
