User-friendly
dual banders with independent band controls
Icom technology brings you high
performance, full-function handhelds, the lC-w32A that meet the demands of both the novice
and experienced operator: simple operation and advanced features.
Independent
band controls
The W32 series handhelds have separate
tuning and volume controls for each band on the top panel. This conveniently allows
independent adjustment of either band. And for added versatility Icom introduces the
VHF/UHF exchange function. This function allows you to assign VHF/UHF tuning and volume to
either knob-set your preferred band to the knob farthest from the antenna for easy access.
Of course the frequency display changes in sync with this function.
Simultaneous
receive of both bands
Independent main and sub bands allow you to
receive both VHF and UHF simultaneously; or use the VN and U/U functions for receiving 2
frequencies on the same band. Moreover, either operating band can be used in transmit
regardless of whether it appears in its 'proper' display or not.
200
memory channels with memory name capability
100 memories for each band provide ample
storage of most-used frequencies, repeater information, etc. Each channel can be assigned
a name of up to 8 alpha characters from the keypad for easy recognition. This memory name
function is also available for DTMF memory channels for auto patch dialing convenience.
Handheld-to-handheld
cloning capability
Through the use of an optional cloning
cable, information such as memory channels, memory names, etc. can easily be transferred
from one IC-W32A/E to another. In addition, optional soft-ware allows you to clone and
edit contents using a computer.
