One of the reasons I chose the 350 instead of the 460 (they both seem to have the large numerals) was the flexability of power. I have several LI battery items and if you can't recharge, you are out of luck. The 350 allows one to carry spare AA cells for power if you run out of power in an emergency or long trip. May be infrequent or unusual but my VHF is a just in case item mostly anyhow. The 460 is a very nice looking radio with the functions of the 350 plus maybe a few others. --Mel-- =^..^= Cell: (937) 232-6472 Pager: (888) 704-4169 http://melskayakpage.homestead.com http://www.mellammers.net http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Foldableseayakers mslammers_at_mellammers.net foldableseayakers_at_yahoogroups.com Mike Daly Wrote: Date: Mon, 12 Mar 2001 20:37:50 -0500 From: "Michael Daly" <michaeldaly_at_home.com> Subject: Re: [Paddlewise] VHF HX350S From: "Jernigan Brian (nbd1bpj)" <nbd1bpj_at_ups.com> >The new model is the HX 460.

One of the nice features that attracted some of us auld fahrts with failing eyesight was the 350's large display. Does this new model have a puny display? (I haven't found one on a web page anywhere.)
