With the optional remote control kit, RMK-2 and separation cable,
the front panel of the radio can be detached from the main unit. It
allows you flexible installation even in limited installation space.
Separation cable length is selectable from 1.9, 3.0 and 8.0m.
Using a high contrast LCD, the IC-F1721/F1821 series shows operating
channels, tone and other settings clearly under nearly any lighting
conditions. With a dot matrix display, upper and lower case
characters can be easily distinguished. In addition, you can change
the display setting to show one line and 12 characters, or two lines
and 24 characters via programming.
The new heavy-duty hand microphone, HM-148, uses a dynamic design
that is made to handle punishment. The oversized dimensions allow
for easy use with gloves on. And the curl cord can be easily
replaced by simply opening the case–easy maintenance for long term
use.
With heavy-duty construction, the IC-F1721/F1821 series is built to
last. The
IC-F1721/D incorporates a 4W speaker in an impact resistant
polycarbonate front panel for crisp clear audio, and the IC-F1821/D
has a backlit 10-keypad for extended operation. The 10-keypad
version is supplied with an external speaker.
Use the built-in CTCSS, DTCS, 2-Tone, 5-Tone or BIIS capability to

Up to 256 memory channels can be divided into 32 memory
zones, and allows you quick access to the intended channel.
The tactical group function allows you to copy memory channels into
a new memory zone (using Zone 32) without using PC programming. This
function allows you to construct a temporary work group on site for
working with inter organization groups, such as in case of a large
scale disaster.
The IC-F1721/F1821 series includes a built-in inversion type voice
scrambler in all models. When a more secure system is required, the
optional voice scrambler unit UT-109 or UT-110 is available. * These
voice scrambler functions are not available in digital mode.
The radio stun/kill functions disable a lost or stolen radio over
the air, eliminating security threats from undesired listeners. The
power-on password prevents unauthorized people turning on the radio.
