Standard Horizon GX1800GB Fixed Mount VHF Radio with GPS – Black

The Standard Horizon GX1800GB is a high-performance 25 W fixed-mount marine VHF radio with built-in GPS, designed for reliable communication and enhanced safety on recreational and commercial vessels. This Black Explorer-Series transceiver combines essential marine radio features with integrated GPS position awareness — helping you stay connected and informed on the water. 

Featuring a 66-channel WAAS GPS receiver built into the front panel, the GX1800GB eliminates the need for an external GPS antenna, enabling DSC position reporting, navigation data, and waypoint tracking directly from the unit. The radio also includes a separate CH70 receiver, allowing continuous monitoring of distress calls while you’re operating on other channels. 

The radio’s ultra-slim rear case design (approx. 3.3″ depth) makes installation easier in tight dash spaces and supports flush or bracket mounting.  Standard Horizon’s intuitive E2O Easy-to-Operate icon and menu system simplifies feature access, including programmable scan modes, priority scan, and multi-watch functions.  You can also connect an optional second-station remote microphone (such as RAM4 SSM-70H) and use the built-in intercom feature to communicate between stations on board. 

Key onboard navigation features include GPS compass display, waypoint entry and navigation, position display of latitude/longitude, speed over ground (SOG) and course over ground (COG), and automatic DSC position polling of multiple vessels.  The unit also supports NOAA weather channels with alerts and selectable night-mode display for low-light conditions. 

The Standard Horizon GX1800GB Fixed Mount VHF with GPS – Black is an excellent choice for boaters seeking trusted VHF communication with built-in GPS navigation and advanced usability features for coastal, inland, and offshore use.
