With the optional remote control kit, RMK-2 and separation cable, the front
panel of the radio can be detached from the main unit. It allows you flexible
installation even in limited installation space. Separation cable length is
selectable from 1.9, 3.0 and 8.0m.
Using a high contrast LCD, the IC-F1721/F1821 series shows operating channels,
tone and other settings clearly under nearly any lighting conditions. With a
dot matrix display, upper and lower case characters can be easily
distinguished. In addition, you can change the display setting to show one
line and 12 characters, or two lines and 24 characters via programming.
The new heavy-duty hand microphone, HM-148, uses a dynamic design that is made
to handle punishment. The oversized dimensions allow for easy use with gloves
on. And the curl cord can be easily replaced by simply opening the case–easy
maintenance for long term use.
With heavy-duty construction, the IC-F1721/F1821 series is built to last. The
IC-F1721/D incorporates a 4W speaker in an impact resistant polycarbonate
front panel for crisp clear audio, and the IC-F1821/D has a backlit 10-keypad
for extended operation. The 10-keypad version is supplied with an external
speaker.
Use the built-in CTCSS, DTCS, 2-Tone, 5-Tone or BIIS capability to set up your

talking. You can also set up selective calls to individuals or control a
repeater.
Encode or decode up to 10 2-Tone, 8 5-Tone codes on a single memory

Up to 256 memory channels can be divided into 32 memory zones, and
allows you quick access to the intended channel.
The tactical group function allows you to copy memory channels into a new
memory zone (using Zone 32) without using PC programming. This function allows
you to construct a temporary work group on site for working with inter
organization groups, such as in case of a large scale disaster.
The IC-F1721/F1821 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. * These voice scrambler
functions are not available in digital mode.
The radio stun/kill functions disable a lost or stolen radio over the air,
eliminating security threats from undesired listeners. The power-on password
prevents unauthorized people turning on the radio.
The following selective calling and data message features are available with
the BIIS functions.
