Icom IC-228H 144 MHz / 2-meter FM amateur radio transceiver. This is the higher-power version of the IC-228 series.
This radio is in very clean cosmetic condition for its age and has no noticeable smoke odor.
Tested and working. RF output measured approximately:
High power: 40 watts
Low power: 3.5 watts
The radio was also tested on the air, and a short video is included showing it successfully accessing a local repeater that requires sub audible tone for access.
The radio appears to have had the MARS/cap modification performed, allowing operation outside the standard amateur-band frequency range. I have not extensively tested operation outside the amateur band.
The original-style DC connector at the rear of the radio has been replaced with a newer, commonly used style T connector. A new matching DC power cord is included.
Included in the sale:
Icom IC-228H transceiver
Icom HM-14 DTMF hand microphone
New DC power cord
No mounting bracket or manual is included.
IMPORTANT: The Yaesu YS-500 watt/SWR meter visible in the photos is shown for testing/demonstration purposes only. The Yaesu meter is NOT included in this sale.
The photos show the actual radio being sold. Please review them for cosmetic condition.
Again, the Yaesu wattmeter shown in the test photos is NOT INCLUDED. The sale is for the Icom IC-228H, microphone, and DC power cord only.
The radio will be carefully packed for safe shipment and shipped promptly.
