I'm convinced that the lifeline works great as an emergency VHF radio for divers, which is great since I dive alot, however I also need a general purpose VHF radio for when I go kayaking. I couldn't find any reviews of the lifeline being used in this manner, so if anyone has any info that would be great.
How long can the radio last in receive mode only? Better yet, is there a battery life rating for general VHF use. (IE 10% transmit, 90% receive)
Can the radio receive while the lid is closed?
How much does it cost to replace the battery?
Can I permanently disable GPS when I'm not using it?
