ICOM IC 91A VHF/UHF Handheld Dual-Band 2Way Radio

Wide band receiver with dualwatch capability The IC-91A has dualwatch receiver capability, allowing you to receive* two bands simultaneously (including same band). By pushing and holding the [Main/Dual] button, you can easily turn dualwatch on and off, while a press of the button allows you to toggle the active VFO channels. *See specifications for receive range coverage.

Large dot-matrix LCD Using a large full dot-matrix LCD (37.8×20mm; 11/2×25/32 in), the IC-91A clearly shows two-line frequency settings, alphanumeric channel name, bandscope, etc. You can choose large or small font size in the setting mode. In addition, automatic LCD and keypad backlighting provides bright illumination for night time operation.

Simple bandscope Spectrum activity is displayed on the screen and audio is heard while sweeping the range. It is useful for finding new or interfering signals.

5 Watts (typical) output Icom’s original wideband PA circuit and supplied lithium-ion battery pack provides 5W (typ.) output. The supplied BP-217 provides up to 5/4.5 hours* of operating time and greatly reduces both the size and weight needed to obtain full output power. * VHF/UHF single mode, Tx high: Rx: Stand-by duty ratio= 1: 1: 8

Keypad navigation The 4 cursor direction buttons on the keypad gives you quick and intuitive access to many settings. The twin volume/channel knob provides convenient channel/volume setting.

External DC power jack An external DC power jack allows for operation with an external DC power supply (10–16V DC). When used with the CP-19R or OPC-254L, simultaneous operation during charging is possible.

Built-in CTCSS/DTCS encoder and decoder CTCSS and DTCS tones are used for accessing a repeater or for tone squelch operation. The pocket beep alerts you with a beep sound when the transceiver receives a preset tone.

The IC-91A is D-STAR optional.

Other features Squelch release function to monitor a weak signal. Water-resistant construction, equivalent to IPX4 Auto power save, power off and power on 26 memory banks with selected bank and bank link scanning 10 channel DTMF memory (16-digit) 10dB (approx) built-in attenuator Total of 1304 memory channels Automatic repeater function* Weather channel with weather alert* * USA version only

D-STAR DV mode available (Digital Voice + data) The IC-91AD* provides DV mode operation with an AMBE codec. 950 bps data can be sent simultaneously with the digital voice transmission. When you receive an FM mode (or other mode) signal while operating in DV mode, the automatic DV detection function changes the operating mode to the one detected. * Optional UT-121 is required for use with IC-91A.

One touch reply button The newly adopted one-touch reply [CALL RX->CS] button memorizes the received callsign(s) at the touch of the button. This function allows you to respond to the calling station without hassle. In addition, up to 20 received callsigns are stored in a received call history.

Built-in voice recorder and auto reply function The built-in voice recorder* records an incoming call for up to 30-seconds (approx.), (or 15 sec. × 2 tracks, 10 sec. × 3 tracks). The 10 sec. transmit memory allows you to record your callsign, CQ and automatically answers when you receive a message. * Available in DV mode only

Optional PC remote control capability When connected to a PC via an RS-232C cable, most functions of the IC-91A* can be controlled from the PC with the optional RS-91 software. In DV mode operation, you can send and receive short messages of 20 characters (Max.) on the PC. * Also available in analog mode

DX communication over the D-STAR system The D-STAR repeaters for 144, 440MHz are now available. It allows cross band (144/440/1200MHz) operation and long distance communication over the D-STAR system
