IC-V86/IC-U86

VHF/UHF TRANSCEIVERS

The Icom IC-V86 (VHF) and IC-U86 (UHF) are rugged, high-powered handheld radios designed for reliable communication in demanding environments. With an impressive 7-watt output, loud 1500mW audio, and long battery life, they ensure clear and uninterrupted communication. Built for durability, these radios are ideal for outdoor adventures, security teams, and professional use where strong, dependable connectivity is essential.

7 W Output Power and 1500 mW Audio

* Wide open space. Approximate, comparing the IC-V86 with the IC-V80. Communication range may differ depending on operating environment or weather conditions, etc. 7 W output power is only for theIC-V86.

1500 mW powerful audio

1500 mW Powerful Audio and 1.5 Times* Higher Sound Pressure

* Approximate, comparing the IC-V86 with the IC-V80.

Optional 1500 mW Speaker-Microphone, HM-222HLWP

The combination of the optional HM-222HLWP and the IC-V86/U86* also provides 1500 mW (typ.)  loud audio from the attached speaker-microphone.

* For the transceiver  with a "U" mark on the serial number label.

Dust-Protection, Water Resistance and a Tough Body
(IP54 and MIL-STD 810G)

19 hours* of Long Lasting Battery Life

* EX Hi power with BP-298. TX : RX : standby = 5 : 5 : 90 (3 sec. : 3 sec. : 54 sec. ) (The Power Save function is set to "P–S.16")

No PC Programming Necessary, Settings Changeable from the Radio*

* PC programming is also available.
