The IC-2820H receives 118-549.995 and 810- 999.990MHz* with dualwatch receiver capability that allows you to receive two bands simultaneously (including within a single band)*. Almost all VHF & UHF communications are available to you!
Diversity receive capability
If you have two antennas, diversity receive*
capability is useful for mobile operation where the received signal
strength changes continuously. Within a single band, the radio compares
signal strength from each antenna and chooses the better signal to
maintain good sound and receive quality.
50W output power on both VHF and UHF bands
A MOSFET power amplifier provides a powerful 50W on both the 2m and
70cm bands, making this compact rig's signal travel for miles! Output
power is selectable in 3 steps
Separate controller from main unit
The controller is separated from the main unit for flexible
installation. The controller has magnets on the rear panel, allowing
you to attach the controller to the main unit or other metal objects.
This makes clean and neat installation easy! A 3.4m separation cable,
OPC-1663, and a short cable (10cm), OPC-1712, are included.
522 memory channels
The IC-2820H has a total of 522 memory channels, 500 regular
channels, 2 call channels and 20 scan edge channels. Each memory
channel stores tone frequency, skip information and so on. The Dynamic
Memory Scan (DMS) system divides these memories into 26 groups, A to Z,
and provides easy channel selection. Of course, bank scanning is also
possible.
