General Notes

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. Specifications – Operating Temperature: -10°C to +60°C (+14°F to +140°F) – Antenna Impedance: 50 Ω (PL-259 connector) – Antenna VSWR: Less than 1.5:1 – Transmitter Output… High power and two low-power levels (1 and 2) – Audio OutpuT: Internal speaker or external speaker via separate 4-8 Ω jacks for VHF and UHF – RF Attenuator: Up to 10 dB attenuation (activated via squelch control) – Microphone Connector: 8-pin connector with +8 V DC output (max 10 mA) Receiver Receive Frequency Range: VHF: 118.000–174.000 MHz (Guaranteed: 144–148 MHz). UHF: 430.000–450.000 MHz (Guaranteed: 440–450 MHz for USA version). – Receive System: Double-conversion superheterodyne. – Intermediate Frequencies (IF): VHF: 1st: 17.2 MHz; 2nd: 455 kHz. UHF: 1st: 30.85 MHz; 2nd: 455 kHz. – Sensitivity: Less than 0.16 µV (for 12 dB SINAD). – Squelch Sensitivity: Less than 0.13 µV (at threshold). – Selectivity: More than 12 kHz / –6 dB; Less than 30 kHz / –60 dB. – Spurious and Image Rejection: More than 60 dB. – Intermodulation Rejection: More than 60 dB. – Audio Output Power: More than 2.4 W at 10% distortion with an 8 Ω load. – External Speaker Impedance: 4–8 Ω. Operating Voltage: 13.8 V DC (±15%) Current Consumption 12 A or more current capacity required for operation
