VHF Hi.. I am in need of the schematic for my dead "aurora" VHF from West Marine. THanks for the help..-R

Need more information. Which channels don't work? Not all channels are authorized. Typically, the radio will not fail in such a way to allow some channels to work but not others.

Go direct to UNIDEN or a repair statin that services this unit

Hi
For your 230, you need part number R49085 which should be able to be ordered by any Raymarine dealer. On the link below, scroll down to post #8.

Hope this helps you out.

Hi!

Yes, you'll need a marine VHF antenna. They're widely available at any marine store. Hope this helps.

Happy Boating!

Hi Simon...
The most trusted site for buying is amazon (cheapest too), so I have found this UpBright Car DC Adapter For UNIDEN ATLANTIS 250G 250BK Two Way VHF... for about 6.5$
take a look and enjoy

Blue: Speaker (+)
Gray: Speaker ( -)
Yellow: NMEA IN (+)
Green: NMEA IN (- )

I went to a West Marine store and checked the resistance of a new antenna using an ohm meter.

Hi, It is not typical but neither is there a problem with the radio. Transmit Power output is loosely dependent on the: 1. Frequency or channel you are transmitting. Normally, Marine Band VHF are calibrated for max (25 in your radio) at Ch16 or 156.800Mhz; 2. If the SWR of the antenna is not a flat 1.0, power tends to go down; 3. After some time, the TX side of the radio needs to be re-calibrated; 4. Power Supply - some radios will push max output only when powered with 13.8 and tends to go down when used with 12 volts. Hope this be of some help/idea. Post back should you need additional information. Good luck and kind regards.
