I'm looking at installing a new vhf system and the Standard horizon GX1850 seams to fit the bill but I would like to know if anyone has used or installed a unit and did it work as to spec.
Anyone installed GX1850

I bought the GX2200 by SH and find it to be excellent while sailing the Puget Sound and Salish Sea. It even talks Canadian... Regularly hear from Victoria Station CCG (or GCC if you please) that the boats in Haro Strait are having a go of it.
Also have the GX2200 by SH. Works well, the audio is clear and range is good.
Standard Horizon is a well respected electronics company. The company also makes other high frequency radios under other brand names.
Edit: I know John and I didn't specifically answer the question about a particular model. I mentioned the GX2200 to emphasize the quality of the company's products. The GX1850 might be a real dud, however, given SH's reputation, I doubt they would produce an inferior product.
