How can I check to see if my radio is receiving correctly? I don’t seem to hear anyone talking.

Try switching the radio over to the Weather channel mode. When you are in this mode the USA will disappear and be replaced by WX on your screen. Make sure you check all 10 weather channels to find your local one. If you receive weather loud and clear, this is a good sign your radios receiver is working as the radio only has one receiver. You may be out of range of other boaters, or you may be listening on channels no one is actively using at the time.

When I press the talk button (PTT) my radio’s display will shut off and restart. Why does this happen?

The radio will shut down to protect itself. This will happen when the radio is unable to get sufficient “energy” from the power source. 1. Make sure your battery is fully charged. 2. Most batteries even when well cared for may still need to be replaced after a few years. 3. If you have a voltmeter, you can check your battery for DC voltage. If you read 6 volts or below, the battery may have to be replaced. The closer to 0 volts, the worse the condition of your battery.

Can I leave my radio on the charger constantly?

We recommend only leaving the radio in the charger for the amount of time it takes to fully charge the battery. Leaving the radio on charge for a few extra hours will not have an impact. However, leaving the battery to charge for more than a few days at a time can contribute to premature wear on your battery.

Marine and Programmable Land Mobile Channels

The HX380 is factory programmed with all USA, Canadian, International and NOAA Weather channels. It also has the capability to be programmed with up to 40 Land Mobile Radio (137-174MHz) channels with CTCSS or DCS signaling by a Standard Horizon dealer. Note: These channels do require the appropriate Federal Communications license.

Lithium-ion battery and charger

The HX380 is packaged with a 1750mAh Lithium-ion battery providing up to 13 hours of operating time on a single charge. The HX380 is also packaged with a 110V wall charger, 12V cigarette lighter charger, and charging cradle

Loud speaker audio

The HX380 is designed with heavy commercial use in mind, with an internal 700mW speaker, receiving clear radio transmissions in a noisy environment is no longer a problem.

Battery life indicator

A real time battery life indicator in the upper left corner of the screen gives the user an estimated remaining battery life

Programmable Scan, Priority Scan and Dual Watch

Scanning is not an issue with the HX380. The radio can be setup to scan any number of channels with or without a priority channel or simply can be setup to scan between a priority channel and one other channel (dual watch).

NOAA Weather Channels and Weather Alert

10 NOAA and Canadian Weather channels are pre-programmed and easily selectable using the dedicated WX key. In addition, the HX380 can be set to monitor WX channels and provide an audible alert to inform of pending storm advisories.
