Supports
demanding communication with simple operation
Durability, dependability,
operation simplicity, style, ruggedness, economical use, and more are required
for commercial transceivers. But only a few such transceivers are available,
particularly for portables. Now from ICOM__the IC-F3G series
of portable transceivers aim to become the most highly reputable of all
commercials. Superior performance and features, everything you require
is included. Icom's technology gives you satisfaction you never knew before.
Supports multiple signalling
and flexible selective calling
CTCSS/DTCS encoder/decoder,
and DTMF, 2/5-tone encoder with user programmable CTCSS, DTCS capabilities,
are built-in. The optional UT-96+ (for 2/5tone), or UT-108+
(for DTMF) allows decode with ANI functions. In addition, special tone
code, for group, and individual calls, and more features are available
to support flexible, perfect selective calling operations.
