Details:
The M72 is an optimal radio with its compact design (the antenna is engineered to perform with typical Icom efficiency even though it is nearly 30% shorter than previous Icom marine antenna), hourglass body-shape and side grips, the radio is comfortable and it is easy to use with just one hand. Not only is the radio comfortable to hold, it also has an easy to read LED screen. The M72 has a wide viewing angle, high intensity LCD, offering bright, easy to read characters. The bright LCD backlighting and backlit keypad is great for night time operation.
The M72's 6 Watts of transmit power can carry a conversation a long way. It comes with a large capacity 2000mAh Lithium-Ion battery that allows for 15 to 16 hours of operation, under normal conditions. This handheld radio is also equipped with Force5Audio. The M72's impressive audio output (600mW typ.) is loud enough to hear in most any marine environment - even over loud engine noise of a boat.
The M72 offers Icom's best-ever protection against water intrusion. This radio has been tested to survive after being submerged in 1.5m (4.9ft) depth of water for 30 minutes. It is also equipped with AquaQuake technology. This draining function emits a vibrating sound and clears water away from the speaker grill.
Additional features include an auto scan function to start scanning when receiving no signal, an auto power save function, a battery indicator that shows the remaining battery power in 4 levels, and instant access to Ch. 16 and Ch. 9 (or call channel).
