Well, it's over - I've ordered the LMR-400-DB. The smoking gun was in not only some conversations in various places, but the specifics of what makes this one waterproof found in http://www.timesmicrowave.com/content/pdf/lmr/22-25.pdf
FWIW, I dealt with Joel Knoblock at therfc.com, a very helpful Ham (the site concentrates on Hams, but does a lot of marine business as well). Ordering was via an RFQ, insert the quote number in the box, and off we went. So, thanks to all for the various inputs. I'm ashore (well, technically, I'm under way to where we'll be docked when we're ashore) until mid-January, but will be back at it when we return, installing new chartplotter (old one's getting too small for our aging eyes), GPS (old one's sometimes flaky), maybe AIS, high output alternator in Delco 10-DN format, new gelcel spotlight batteries, new helm VHF (undecided as yet what that will be), winch parts, rubber feet for the Honda eu2000i, rebuilt injectors for Perky (never been done that showed in the records with the boat and certainly not by us, yet), rewind spring for the revived Johnson 15, shaft kit for one of the Jabsco raw water pump spares I have, and perhaps some other stuff we'll trip over in our meanderings.
