Icom IC-V80E

The Icom IC-V80E is a very robust and versatile monoband VHF (2m) handheld radio. The construction is dust and water protected (IP54) and therefore very well suitable for everyday outdoor use. The large speaker and an AF power of >700mW result in a very good intelligibility, even in the car or noisy environments. The transmit power can be switched from 0.5 to 2.5 or 5.5W. The receiver covers 136 to 174 MHz. More than 200 memories offer a lot of capabilities, for example the alpha-numeric channel indicator for each memory. CTCSS/DTCS functions are built in for receive and transmit. The included NiMH battery BP-264 offers a long duration. The built in keyboard helps with entering frequencies directly and is also used for DTMF tones, e.g. for Echolink operation.
