Tough and Waterproof

The IC-M88 is built tough to withstand hazardous environments. Even if it is dropped into water, its waterproof construction* will protect it from harm.

* Equivalent to IPX7. (1 m depth/30 min.)

Simple Operation

The volume/power knob combines with 6 clearly labeled front panel buttons to maximize simplicity of operation. A large, clear LCD with backlighting and backlit buttons make night time operation easy.

Li-Ion Battery for Long Battery Life

With the standard battery pack, the IC-M88 provides up to 15 hours of operating time.* Also, no worries about 'memory effect' of the battery with Li-Ion technology.

* Tx:Rx:Stand-by= 5:5:90 with BP-227.

22 Programmable Channels

The IC-M88 has 22 programmable channels reserved for land use (146–174 MHz).* Wide/narrow channel spacing is programmable for each channel, and CTCSS and DTCS signaling is built-in.

* Appropriate license will be required.
