Submersible, portable land mobile radios
22 March, 2004 | Supplied by: http://www.icom.net.au/
Icom's F50/F60 series of waterproof (submersible), portable land mobile transceivers meets JIS-7 standards (equivalent to the more commonly known IEC IPx7 Ingress Protection Standard), just like many marine VHF handheld radios. This brings waterproof durability to tough work environments and meets the diverse needs of the government, utilities, transportation, and business and industry markets. This is useful for anyone whose communication needs place them indoors and outdoors, as well as first responders for whom tough environments may limit communications in do-or-die situations.
