ICOM IC-F21 UHF Handheld Two-Way Radio

Perfect for Business, Big or Small

The on-site communications solution
For small business, hotels, hospitality, landscape, nursery, etc. who need economical and instant two-way communications. Also a wireless intercom solution for large retailers, warehouses, etc.

Keep in touch without interruption
Keep all your associates in-touch instantly without the interruption of a public address system or the expense and complication of a cell phone. Answer customer inquiries, check stock, arrange special handling, and provide better service to your customers right from the retail sales floor. Increase productivity at the same time you improve service.

Twice as much power than other models
Use a full 4 watts when you need it, or select a lower setting if you don’t... you decide. Increase the range of your transmissions outdoors, and indoors where obstacles and walls offer challenges to your current equipment. Crystal clear communications.

Simple controls, easy to use
Transmit button, volume control and channel selector are all you need. All three controls may be operated without removing the radio from your belt. The perfect business tool that doesn’t require training to use. Great for high turnover or retail shift situations.

Military rugged construction
Don’t let the light weight or compact body fool you. This is a military spec. rugged radio that can take abuse and keep working. Don’t worry about special training. Just put them out in the workplace and let them do their job.

Wide/narrow capability – a good investment
May be operated on 12.5 or 25 kHz wide channels. Ease the transition to the new narrow channels as the new regulations move users in that direction. A good investment that will adapt to the future. Won’t be obsolete as the rules change.

Multiple groups and individual selective calling
Use the built-in signaling capability (2-tone, 5-tone, CTCSS, DTCS) to set up your own talk groups and quiet the radio when others are talking. You can set up selective calls to individuals too. Keep private communications private and eliminate unnecessary interruptions in the workplace.
