IC-V80E VHF & IC-T70E Dual Band Handportable Amateur Radios, New!

Icom radios are built tough, and the new IC-T70E VHF/UHF dual band and IC-V80E VHF single band handportables are no exception.

These new additions to Icom’s Amateur radio product range offer military rugged construction, water resistance and superior protection against the elements to MIL-STD-810 and IP54 standards.

Both models feature great audio employing a BTL (bridge-tied load) amplifier that doubles the audio output. Together with a large speaker, this delivers 750mW of loud and intelligible audio making them ideal for operating in a noisy environment.

Add a simple, straightforward design, long lasting battery life, built in VOX function and you have a choice of two models that are ideal for basic, on-the-go operations.

The IC-T70E is available now. The IC-V80E will be available from June 2010. Both models will be supplied with BP-264 1400mAh Ni-MH battery pack, charger, belt clip and antenna.
