ICOM IC-R6 SPORT Communications Receivers

ICOM IC-R6 SPORT Communications Receivers

ICOM IC-R6 SPORT Communications Receivers have an ultra-wideband frequency range, covering from 100 kilohertz to 1,309.995 Megahertz. Even so, they provide superior sensitivity and selectivity characteristics that resist interference. A wide variety of utility and government communications, amateur radio stations, AM, FM, and short wave broadcast stations can be monitored with these receivers. A valuable feature, the Voice Squelch Control, opens the squelch only when a modulated signal is detected. It’s a handy feature for listeners scanning for news, talk, and music–not data bursts or beacons.

The IC-R6 SPORT has 100 channels per second of high-speed scan capability when in VFO mode. This superior scanning power provides efficiency when searching over 1,309 MHz of spectrum! With 1,300 alphanumeric memory channels, 50 scan edges, 200 auto-write memories, and 22 memory banks, ICOM IC-R6 SPORT Communications Receivers give you unparalleled scanning flexibility!

The IC-R6 SPORT is very energy-efficient! Power is supplied by two standard AA alkaline batteries. You may also operate the IC-R6 SPORT utilizing the optional DC car cord. Or use optional rechargeable NiMH cells with the wall charger and perhaps the convenient drop-in stand. The power choices are all yours!
