IC-M802 HF Marine Transceiver

The latest ICOM digital signal processor technoloy with a compact remote head 

The M802 is full of features any cruiser would not want to be without. Increase your safety at sea with built-in digital selective calling, the latest in one-touch emergency communications technology.

Digital communications are also made simple with this SSB radio. When voice communications are difficult, send and receive messages with the one-touch email access frequency, mode and bandwidth settings. The large LCD display allows for easy reading, day or night. At sea email has never been easier.

Features

Standard 4 × 8 remote controller
The IC-M802 offers an industry-standard 4-inch tall (10.16 cm) remote controller. When set up with the Icom VHF radio, Icom offers you a complete communications station.

Large LCD with dot matrix characters
You can easily read the alphanumeric name of any of the 1355 ITU channels at a glance with the large LCD display. Nighttime operation is no problem with 10 levels (plus OFF) adjustable backlit display and keypad.

Easy to use in all conditions
The IC-M802 offers two large dials – bank and channel – for easy channel selection. Up to 16 banks of 20 (max.) each for user channels, and 17 banks for ITU channels are available.

Built-in digital selective calling
For added safety at sea, the IC-M802 offers the latest in one-touch DSC emergency communications technology. (ITU-R M.493-13 Class E standard.) The emergency button is covered by a red, spring loaded hatch to avoid accidental DSC activation.

Digital signal processor advantage
The speech compressor, utilizing DSP, increases average talk power. Flexible filter settings provide for narrow band signals like e-mail, SITOR, FSK and other operation without an optional filter.

150W (PEP) of powerful output
150 Watts of power offers superior worldwide communications. A one piece, die cast aluminum chassis and a large cooling fan allow continuous transmission at full output power – very important for data communications, like e-mail.

One-touch e-mail access
An SSB first! The IC-M802 can be set to memorize your HF e-mail access frequency, mode and bandwidth settings. At sea e-mail has never been easier. * Please consult with an HF e-mail provider for details.

Automatic antenna tuner, AT-140
An optional automatic antenna tuner, AT-140, easily connects to the IC-M802. When the tuner cannot tune the antenna, the IC-M802 bypasses the tuner and displays a warning indicator on the LCD.
