VHF AND UHF TRANSCEIVERSIC-F34GT (VHF transceiver with 10-keypad) IC-F34GS (VHF transceiver with out 10-keypad) IC-F44GT (UHF transceiver with 10-keypad) IC-F44GS (UHF transceiver with out 10-keypad) A New Direction in Private Mobile Radios
The IC-F34G series is suitable for a variety of needs - large or small, mobile or stationary.
Whether you are on a large-scale construction site, warehouse, hospital or hotel, or operating a small on the go messenger service, this radio provides the built-in flexibility to handle all your communication needs. Offering advanced features such as wide frequency range, multiple signaling
and loud audio, the IC-F34G series is a rugged and reliable 2-way communications tool.
This is the new direction in PMR communications.
Lithium-Ion battery pack
The large capacity 1150mAh Li-Ion battery pack, BP-231, provides 8/9 hours* of operating time.
For longer operating time, use the BP-232 which is rated for a full 15/16 hours*.
Li-Ion technology has virtually no memory charging issues.
A rugged dual-rail guide securely locks the battery to the radio.
* UHF/VHF, typical operation Tx:Rx: Standby=5:5:90, power save on.
Wide frequency range and large channel capacity
The IC-F34G series covers a wide frequency range in one version (136–174,400–470MHz).
Wide, middle and narrow channel bandwidth* is programmable to each channel.
The 256 memory channel capacity with 16 memory banks allows you to divide and store a variety of flexible channel groupings.
Easy memory channel selection is possible with a simple rotation of the rotary channel knob.
(* Programmable 25/12.5kHz or 20/12.5kHz)
Small and lightweight body
The IC-F34G series sheds size and weight compared with previous models, weighing just 285g* (including BP-231) and measuring only 53(W)×120(H)×32.5(D) mm.
The aluminum die-cast chassis and polycarbonate casing combination meets MIL standard specifications.
* VHF version
Built-in multi-format tone signaling
Use the built-in CTCSS, DTCS, 2-Tone, 5-Tone or BIIS capability to set up your own talk groups and quiet stand-by when others are talking.
You can also set up selective calls to individuals or control a repeater.
Multiple 5-Tone, Multiple 2-Tone
Encode or decode up to 8 5-Tone, 10 2-Tone codes on a single memory channel.
This is perfect for professionals who require multiple district paging on one channel.
When a matched tone is received,the following items are programmable for each code.
Bell icon
Answer back
Stun
Beep sound
Auto transmit
Scan
8-character text
8 programmable buttons
The [P0]–[P3], [▲], [▼], [Red] and [Monitor]buttons are programmable to meet specific needs.
The [Red] button on the top panel can be assigned as an emergency trigger.
Alphanumeric display
The 8-character alphanumeric display shows channel, bank, tone code and scanning list name on the display.
A separate row of operational icons indicate battery,signal strength, RX/TX and other radio conditions.
Audio compander
The built-in audio compander reduces noise components and provides clear reception even in narrow band use.
Built-in voice scrambler
The IC-F34G series includes a built-in inversion type voice scrambler in all models.
When a more secure system is required, the optional voice scrambler unit UT-109 or UT-110 is available.
BIIS 1200 compatible
The following selective calling and data features are available with the built-in BIIS system.
32 abbreviated call memories
7 group IDs
24-status Messages
Send 8-character SDM (Short Data Message)
Receive up to 95 characters of free text
Other features
