Note
The IC-2350H is a compact, mobile-ready transceiver that supports simultaneous dual-band operation. It features a large, easy-to-read function display that provides essential information for both the main and sub-bands, including frequency, signal strength, and various status indicators. The device is engineered with a cooling fan on the rear panel to manage heat during continuous, high-power transmissions.
Key Features
– Dual-Band Operation: Provides independent controls for VHF and UHF bands, allowing for simultaneous receiving and various transmit options.
– Flexible Memory Management: Includes memory channels, call channels, and scratch pad memories for storing and quickly recalling frequently used frequencies.
– Comprehensive Scanning: Offers multiple scan types, including full scan, programmed scan, and memory scan, with customizable skip channels and resume conditions.
– Advanced Squelch and Tone Options: Supports subaudible tone encoders, tone squelch, and pocket beep functions (some requiring optional units like the UT-89).
– Remote Control Capabilities: Can be operated remotely using a DTMF microphone and the optional UT-101 DTMF unit.
- Priority Watch: Allows users to monitor a priority channel while operating on another frequency.
– Adjustable Power Output: Features high power and two low-power settings (Low 1 and Low 2) to optimize performance and power consumption.
Receiver Features
– RF Attenuator: Provides up to 10 dB of attenuation when the squelch control is rotated past the 12 o'clock position.
– S/RF Indicator: Displays the relative signal strength of received transmissions.
– Sub Band Mute: Can automatically mute the sub band audio when a signal is received on the main band.
– Speaker Configuration: Features separate external speaker jacks for VHF and UHF bands, allowing for independent or mixed audio output depending on the connection.
