The GHS 20 is a wireless remote handset allowing full control of your VHF 200, VHF 300 or 300 AIS series¹ radio from a remote location. The simple design offers a backlit LCD display, soft keys and a rotary knob to adjust volume, squelch and channel selection. A 16/9 softkey automates distress calling, while a large rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides a quicker charge and longer range.
For full wireless capability, a GWH 20 wireless hub is required (the radio only supports one GWH 20). We offer a bundled version of the GHS 20 with the GWH 20. The GWH 20 provides intercom capability with the base station and supports up to 3 GHS 20 handsets onboard. Click the In the Box and Versions tabs for more information.
¹ A software update may be required before you can use the GHS 20 with your VHF radio. Contact Garmin Customer Support for more information.
