DATASCAPE
VHF AIR BAND TRANSCEIVERS
IC-A3
/ IC-A3E
Smallest in
its class with crystal clear audio.
This 760 COM channel transceiver is loaded with features, yet simple to
operate.
Compact size, simple operation
Previous portable air band transceivers weren't so "portable."
The IC-A3/E ushers in a new era in compact portability (see
specifications on reverse side for exact dimensions). But don't let its
size fool you, design ingenuity has produced a portable with superior
high audio output-audio that's easy to hear even without a headset!
Ergonomic keypad design provides convenient access to all functions and
a rotary control allows quick tuning of channels.
Built-in sidetone function with optional headset
The sidetone function allows the use of a simple low cost headset
adapter to monitor your transmitted audio.
AIphanumeric display with large, easy-to-read characters
6-character alphanumeric notes can be used for convenient display of
airport names, call signs, etc. for up to 50 memories. When you want to
view frequencies instead, toggling between the two display types is a
snap. In addition, lockout information can be programmed into memories
for scanning purposes.
Receives marine weather channels*
In addition to operation across the entire air band, the IC-A3 can
receive all VHF FM marine weather channels. Tune in to these channels
and listen to the latest NOAA weather forecasts and advisories.
*U.S.A.version only.
