FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ICOM ANNOUNCES THE NEW IC-24AT DUAL BAND MINI-HANDHELD
TRANSCEIVER
OCTOBER 9, 1989
ICOM, always on the leading edge of technology, announces the
debut of the new 440MHZ and 144MHz dual band mini handheld, the
IC-24AT. Demands for compact, lightweight and multi-functional
dual band transceivers are increasing. ICOM answers these
demands with the IC-24AT, the most compact dual band handheld in
the world!
COMPACT and SOPHISTICATED
The IC-24AT measures only 2.0"W x 5.4"H x 1.4"D and weighs
just 12 ounces. The new dual band mini handheld is designed
to fit comfortably in your hand and provide you with a
variety of the most advanced dual band features.
FIVE WATT POWER OUTPUT
The IC-24AT delivers a full five watts of output power at
13.8 volts DC. Reach all those distant repeaters!
BUILT-IN CLOCK
Be on time for all your scheduled QSOs with the advanced
24-hour clock system with auto power on timer and power off
timer functions built-in. The IC-24AT can turn itself on when
a preprogrammed time matches actual time and automati- cally
turns itself off which conserves battery life.
CROSSBAND FULL DUPLEX CAPABILITY
The IC-24AT's is capable of simultaneously transmitting on
the 144MHz band and receiving on the 440MHz and vice versa,
acting as a crossband repeater. A convenient feature for
telephone-style full duplex QSO's.
CONVENIENT KEYBOARD and TUNING CONTROL
The IC-24AT easy-to-access keyboard is useful for keying in
frequencies, storing a frequency in memory, recalling a fre-
quency from memory, simplex/duplex selection, scanning ac-
tivities and many other functions. The top panel tuning con-
trol compliments the keyboard aiding in quick switching of
memory channels and tuning steps.
40 DOUBLE SPACED MEMORY CHANNELS
The IC-24AT has 40 fully programmable memory channels on
each band for a total of 80 memory channels plus two call chan-
nels.
DTMF AUTODIAL MEMORY
The IC-24AT can store and send frequently used telephone
numbers (up to 15 digits) at the touch of a button if it is
stored in one of the four DTMF code memory channels. No
need to push multi-digit phone numbers anymore with the
IC-24AT!
The IC-24AT features all this and much more including an external
DC power jack, convenient repeater functions, priority watch,
plus a variety of scan functions. A kaleidoscope of options are
also available for the IC-24AT including the UT-50 CTCSS
encoder/decoder unit, and UT-51 CTCSS encoder unit.
The IC-24AT dual band mini-handheld will be available
November, 1989.
