Not Just Another Marine Radio! Tough construction, superior waterproofing Powerful 5 Watts output power The IC-M88 is built tough to withstand hazardous and unhospitable environments at sea and on land. Even if the IC-M88 is dropped into water, complete waterproofing* will protect it from harm. The compact and durable body has been tested to the military specifications (MIL-STD). The 5 Watts of output power ensures the reliability of your communication, even over long distances. To save on battery consumption, you can reduce the output power to 3 Watts or 1 Watt. * Equivalent to JIS waterproof grade 7. (1 m depth for 30 minutes) 22 programmable channels for land use Simple operation 6 clearly labelled buttons on the front panel and the volume/power knob maximize simplicity of operation. Even when wearing gloves, the large buttons are easy to operate. A large, clear LCD with backlighting and backlit buttons make night time operation simple. Li-ion battery for extra long battery life With the 1950 mAh (typ.) Li-ion battery pack, the BP-227, you can get up to 15 hours of talk time* without worrying about ‘memory effect’ on batteries. An optional AA alkaline battery case, BP-226, provides a convenient back up and great reassurance in an emergency. * Typical operation; Tx:Rx:Stand-by duty ratio = 5:5:90 Waterproof speaker-microphone, HM-168 An optional waterproof speaker-microphone, the HM-168, provides reliable operation, even with the IC-M88 securely on your belt. The IC-M88 has 22 programmable channels reserved for Land use (146–174 MHz). Wide/narrow channel spacing is programmable for each channel, and CTCSS and DTCS signaling is built-in. *Appropriate license will be required. Desktop charger supplied The BC-152N desktop charger is a simple drop-in charger. Set the charger on a table or mount it to a wa
