Gadgets…

It’s an obvious idea of clear utility: standard handheld and
fixed-mount radios that record everything automagically, at
consumer-friendly prices. Loud boat engines and hard-to-decipher
messages will no longer be a problem, according to Cobra Electronics
press release, thanks to their Rewind-Say-Again radio, an all-terrain
model that straddles VHF and GMRS two-way radio. It always keeps the
last 20 seconds in mind, and repeating a misheard communication is
accomplished simply by pressing a button.

The MR F80 B Rewind-Say-Again radio will be offered soon for $210. Cobra will be at the Miami Boat Show for the rest of this week.
