Icom IC-M85 Waterproof Two-Way Radio

The ICOM IC-M85 is a compact, lightweight, and rugged handheld VHF radio designed for both marine and land mobile use. Renowned as one of the smallest and toughest radios on the market, it is built to withstand harsh environments, meeting MIL-STD-810 military standards and boasting an IP67 waterproof rating, which ensures protection even if submerged in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. This makes it an ideal choice for yacht owners, commercial operators, and anyone needing reliable communication at sea or on land.

The IC-M85 stands out with its hybrid functionality, offering full access to VHF marine channels (including USA, Canadian, International, and weather channels) as well as 100 programmable land mobile channels (136–174 MHz). It delivers 5 watts of power on marine channels and 2 watts on land channels, ensuring clear and effective communication. The radio features a built-in voice scrambler for secure, private conversations, along with emergency functions like Man Overboard (MOB), Man Down, and Lone Worker alarms, which automatically activate in critical situations.

The IC-M85 provides powerful 700 mW audio output, ensuring clarity even in noisy environments. Additional features include the AquaQuake™ function to clear water from the speaker, a large backlit LCD display, and easy-to-use buttons that can be operated with gloves.
