Icom Australia has released the IC-F3033S/F4033S series of radios.

The units have the features of the IC-F3023S/F4023S series, but have a waterproof construction added for marine environments. The radios have been upgraded to an IP67 waterproof and dustproof construction, therefore protected from dust ingress and have passed water immersion tests of a one metre depth for 30 minutes.

The rechargeable battery of the radio has also been upgraded from 2000 mAh to a waterproof 2300 mAh Li-Ion battery. This gives the user a typical battery life of 17.5 hours and has been designed for reliability in extremely cold environments.

The series features all the standard functions, two-tone, five-tone, CTCSS and DTCS are all built-in to allow group communications and selective calling capabilities. The unit also includes 128 memory channels and eight zones.

The radios feature a dedicated emergency button that, when pushed, provides personnel with employee safety alerts. A lone worker function is also available, and with an optional UT-124R board installed, the units are also capable of man-down functions.

Priority scan allows the user to monitor one or two priority channels while scanning. Mode dependant scan allows every channel to have its own scanning settings, which is convenient when moving from site to site - if the channel needs to be changed when moving from a different site, the scanning settings will automatically change.

Other features include an eight-character alphanumeric display, low battery alert, two-step power-save and capacity for internal option boards such as man-down, voice scrambler or a DTMF decoder.
