Icom IC-F4029SDR Digital PMR446 Licence Free Walkie Talkie (discontinued)

More details:

• Icom was the first manufacturer who developed a radio using digital technology in PMR446 frequency band as of February 2006.
• The IC-4029SDR utilizes 4FSK/FDMA modulation and 6.25kHz digital narrow channel spacing, which is half the channel spacing of the existing analogue PMR 446 system. This way, the 100kHz band width allocated for digital PMR 446 (446.103125 - 446.196875MHz) is efficiently divided into 16 channels, or twice the current analogue voice channel capacity making this product incredibly spectrum efficient.
• 32 codes of prefixed status messages can be sent and received. 16-character messages and 6 types of alert beeps sound that for call reception, are programmable for each message with optional CS-F4029 cloning software. (Please ask our help to preprogram the radio if you do not intend to purchase the optional software.)
• 6.25kHz ultra narrow channel spacing
• No license* is required to use the radio (*Simple licence or application may be required in some countries.)
• 16 types of ring tone
• The "Common ID” group code function is similar to an analogue CTCSS/DTCS code. By setting 1–254 common ID codes, the IC-F4029SDR opens its squelch only when a matched code is received. It provides quiet stand-by and group call functions while sharing a channel with several groups. The code “255” is the fixed code for an all stations call.
• Compatible with existing analogue PMR446 channels with CTCSS/DTCS tones
• The “Smart-Ring” function checks the availability of your group members within the operating range. The “Ringer” function is used for manually sending a ring tone instead of a voice call.
• The IC-F4029SDR has a fixed type antenna and weighs just 280g (including BP-231). It measures only 53 x 195 x 32.5mm including the antenna. The aluminium die-cast chassis and polycarbonate casing combination is designed for durability. A rugged dual-rail guide chassis securely locks the battery to the back of the radio.
• The IC-F4029SDR incorporates an 8-character 14 segment alphanumeric LCD. An automatic LCD backlight is employed for night-time operation.
• Power on password
• 2-step Power save function
• Using the optional cloning software the settings of the radio can be changed easily.
