Is there an adapter to connect the antenna jack to a fixed mounted antenna?

Yes, the accessory is called a CAW350. It consists of 3' foot of RG-58 coaxial cable with a stud connector that connects to the HX350S and a SO-239 that connects to the ships antenna.

I cannot change channels on the radio.

The radio has a function called Key Lock. Pressing and holding the button on the left side of the radio that has a key symbol operates this feature. If the LCD on the radio has a key symbol, the radio is in the key lock mode and this key must be held until the symbol is removed.

The unit is locked up and the key lock is not on.

Try resetting the microprocessor by turning the unit off, then press and hold the WX and SCAN key while turning the radio back on.

The radio says submersible, what does that mean?

All of our submersible radios meet the JIS7 waterproofing standard. This means the radios were tested to withstand being submersed to 3 feet for 30 minutes.

I submerged the radio and now I do not get any audio from the speaker.

If the radio is submersed, water will fill up in the speaker compartment preventing the speaker from transmitting any audio. This does not damage the radio and water will not penetrate the radio case. To solve this problem simply turn the radio upside down and shake all the water out of the speaker compartment, you may also have to blow out any remaining water to fully restore the speaker.

I have submerged the radio and now it is stuck in transmit.

If the radio is submersed and water penetrates the mic jack cover, water may get into the mic jack and short out the PTT on the radio. This does not damage the radio and water will not penetrate the radio case. To solve this problem simply turn the radio upside down and shake all the water out of the mic jack, you may also have to blow out any remaining water to fully restore the radio.
