Icom IC-T70E

VHF/UHF DUAL BAND FM TRANSCEIVER (Discontinued)
The IC-T70E VHF/UHF dual band handheld transceiver is the successor to Icom’s best selling IC-T7H. The IC-T70E has many impressive features including 700mW loud audio, long-lasting power, rugged construction , plenty of memory channels, all at a competitive price. In short, the IC-T70E offers practical dual band operation and ruggedness, updated for today’s radio enthusiast.

5W of output power both VHF/UHF bands
The IC-T70E employs a new low consumption current FET module providing 5W of high power and long operating time for both VHF and UHF bands. For even longer operating time, 2.5W or 0.5W of reduced output power can be selected.

700mW loud audio
The IC-T70E uses a BTL (bridge-tied load) amplifier that doubles the audio output. The 36mm large speaker delivers 700mW of loud and intelligible audio even in noisy environments.

IP54 and MIL-STD 810 rugged construction
Dust protection and water-resistance equivalent to IP54 provides reliable operation for practical outdoor operation. The IC-T70E is tested and has passed 11 MIL-STD 810 environmental tests.

Alphanumeric display
The 6-character alphanumeric display clearly shows channel name, operating frequency and memory number with bright illumination.

External DC Power Jack
An external DC power jack allows for operation and charge when used with an external DC power supply (10-16V DC). *The BP-265 cannot be charged using the external DC power jack.

302 memory channels
With 302 alphanumeric memory channels, including 50 band edges and 2 call channels, the IC-T70E gives you flexible scanning lists. With a maximum of 26 memory banks*, you can pick and choose the desired banks for scanning from the 250 memories. *Up to 100 channels per bank.

Internal VOX function
The IC-T70E has an internal VOX (Voice Operated Transmit) function for convenient hands-free operation when used with a compatible optional headset and plug adapter cable. Also, the VOX level and VOX delay time are adjustable.

Built-in CTCSS and DTCS
CTCSS and DTCS tones are built-in for quiet stand-by and repeater access. Pocket beep and tone scan are also possible. The tone scan allows the operator to detect the sub-audible tone that is used for repeater access.

Multiple scan function
The IC-T70E supports various scan types for maximum reception and ease of use.

• Full scan
• Programmed scan
• Program link scan
• Band scan
• Memory scan
• Bank scan
• Bank link scan
• Skip scan
