SMG are for trade customers only.
They do not sell retail.

Might be worth an internet search for best pricing.

I guess you had a typo and its actually an Icom M503 that you are after?

typo !! no i was looking for 502 but maybe updated to 503 now?

i have dealers name and details with permission to order on his behalf if need be.

IC-M502 is a US/SEA only radio.
Not designed or approved for use in Europe.

Wrong class of DSC, channels missing, not supported or sold in the UK.
If it is, unless going onto a US reg vessel, the seller is breaking the law.
As will you be if you fit it.

Hi Nugent

Don’t tell every one but I have a trade account with SMG and I am also looking for a Garmin 120 FF so have asked them for some pricing any way this morning, so have added on your Garmin unit and have asked them for there price list for there VHF’s (really should get one as well)

Try Seamark Nunn Group. Strange how that is so similar to SMG.

I vouch for these guys as well - remember when comparing prices that JG Tech include VAT and NEXT DAY delivery. I have used these guys many times.

many thanks all for the imput.
. now my bank is some what lighter yet again,

why do we never tell our wifes what this stufff really costs

mdt · 12 October 2005, 06:52

Well tell you what to do get it shipped to the office and if she notices the “new toys” just reply with “oh had these for a while now you just don’t take any interest in my stuff” you know like she dose if you spot her with new shoes. At least you will use your fish finder more than once before saying it is last years so I can’t be seen out in them…..
