Icom’s IC-A120 Mobile Airband Transceiver is equipped with a crisp, clear, dot-matrix display; active noise cancellation (ANC) and automatic noise limiter (ANL) technology; and straightforward programming and settings options that are accessible from the front panel. The IC-A120 meets IP54 standards for dust-protection and water-resistance and can be connected to an optional Bluetooth unit for compatibility with third-party wireless Bluetooth headsets.

This IC-A120 variant has a base station included.

  • Dot-matrix LCD display is easy to read with crisp, clear text (displays alphanumeric characters and icons)

  • IP54 dust-protection and water resistant construction allows the IC-A120 to be used in open-air vehicles
  • ON-Hook scan function automatically starts scanning when the hand microphone is hooked on the microphone hanger; the ON-Hook dualwatch feature checks the priority and operating channels alternatively while ON-Hook; when the microphone is taken OFF hook, scanning stops at the priority channel or the displayed channel
