VHF FM TRANSCEIVERS
IC-V80
Rugged and Basic 2 M with Powerful Audio!
Perfect for long shelf-life use, such as emergency kits. Same output power (5.5/2.5 or 0.5 Watt selectable) as the standard V80. The V80 SPORT comes with an alkaline tray that will hold 6 AA size batteries*. No charger required. *Batteries are not included.

750 mW loud audio
The IC-V80/E uses the BTL (bridge-tied load) amplifier that doubles the audio output. The 36 mm large speaker delivers 750 mW of loud and intelligible audio*. Great for noisy environments.
* Typical value using with internal speaker.
Powerful 5.5 W of output power
The IC-V80/E offers a just-right mix of power and size. 5.5 watts of high power will work to get your message through. Get up to 19 hours* of operating time with the Li-ion battery pack (BP-265) or 13 hours with the Ni-MH (BP-264). All that power comes is an easy to hold and use size - not too big, not too small.
* Typical operation. 5:5:90 duty cycle with power save on.
IP54 and MIL-STD-810 rugged construction
The dust protection and water-resistance equivalent to IP54 provides reliable operation for practical outdoor operation. The IC-V80/E tested to and passed 11 categories of MIL-STD-810 environmental tests.
A total of 207 memory channels
The IC-V80/E has a total of 207 memory channels, including 200 regular channels, 6 scan edges and 1 call channel. The channel name is programmable with 5 characters for easy recognition.
Built-in CTCSS/DTCS
The CTCSS and DTCS tone codes provide quiet stand-by and allow you to use tone-access repeaters. The pocket beep alerts you when a matching tone frequency is received. The tone scan detects the subaudible tone that is used for repeater access.
Internal VOX function
The IC-V80/E has internal VOX (Voice Operated Transmit) function for convenient handsfree operation with a compatible optional headset and plug adapter cable. Also, the VOX gain and VOX delay time are adjustable.
IC-V80 SPORT: The Rugged Version
Perfect for long shelf-life use, such as emergency kits. Same output power (5.5/2.5 or 0.5 Watt selectable) as the standard V80. The V80 SPORT comes with an alkaline tray that will hold 6 AA size batteries*. No charger required. *Batteries are not included.
Make the V80 SPORT part of your amateur radio communications plan, for emergency or everyday use.
