Does anyone know which is a better VHF Fixed Base unit? The Quest or the Horizon?

Re: Standard Horizon Quest vs Eclipse

It hard to get a bad radio these days. Between the 2 I would go with the Horizon. I really like ICom the best. Make sure you compare features and see if they are equal. May be thing that you will not use like automatic fog Horn, Pa system with listen back. Make sure it has the type of DSC you want.

For a good system put more money into a GOOD 8 foot 6 DB antenna like shakespears 5225. A good antenna will do more to make a good VHF radio than a top of the line Radio.
