The Icom IC-746 covers
160-10
meters plus 6
and 2 meters. 100 Watts of output is available on all
bands - HF, 50
MHz and 144 MHz, making the IC-746 a practical choice
for all-around
base station use. The die-cast aluminum chassis and a
large cooling fan
help to stabilize the PA circuit, providing 100% full
duty cycle
operation. It has 100 alphanumeric memories, spectrum
display, Twin
PBT, CTCSS encode/decode, APF, two stage preamp,
keypad
entry,
automatic antenna tuner and electronic keyer. DSP
digitally transposes
receive audio components in all modes of operation to
produce desired
AF frequency characteristics at the IF stage of the
transceiver. This
built-in DSP provides: noise reduction,
automatic notch filter
and selectable APF. The digital bar graph meter
displays ALC, power
output and SWR simultaneously! The radio automatically
selects from the
three separate antenna inputs (HF, 6 meters, 2
meters). A built-in
automatic antenna tuner operates on the HF bands plus
6 meters. The
rear
panel has three antenna jacks. The 746 requires 12 VDC
at 20 amps.
The IC-746 comes with HM-36 hand
mic,
spare fuses, DC power cable and key plug.
11.3x4.8x12.5 inches. 20 Lbs.
