Built to last, built to work!

The IC-F16/S series shows Icom’s
sign. Simple operation for every
tool for your daily business. Its
sistant to shock and vibration. Thlocks the battery pack to the radage, Li-Ion battery pack, loud andand option unit connector comb
performance, the IC-F16/S series
tions.

Tough and reliable construction
The IC-F16/S series is built around analuminum die-cast chassis and covered
with tough polycarbonate casing. This
radio is built to last. Its dual slide rail securely locks the battery to the radio. The
battery terminal is covered with a noncorrosive rubber packing. The belt clip isclamped between the radio and the battery, making it nearly impossible to knockloose.

Simple operation
Having only 3 buttons, volume and channel knobs, the IC-F16/S series does not
require special training to use. Positive
button action for sure operation evenwhen wearing gloves, allows you to get
down to the business of communicating
without fuss.

Wide frequency coverage
The IC-F16/S series covers a wide frequency range with one version (136–174,400–470MHz). Wide and narrow channel
spacing (25, 12.5kHz) is programmableper channel.

s new direction in LMR radio deyone but a powerful and reliable
