Down the wire comm's
I would be interested to get any feedback on what communication equipment other SAR / EMS operators use for their rescue crewmen (if any). Overland they plug their Alpha's into a handheld Marine VHF, however we are often putting these guy's either into the water or onto small vessels where the chances of them getting wet is high. For water op's they wear a reasonably lightweight no comm's helmet but it would be great for all involved if they had waterproof (or water resistant)comm's.
