Overview

The ICOM IC-M73 01 is a compact, ergonomic handheld VHF marine radio designed for on-deck communication. Its durable shell, comfortable grip, and bright display make everyday use intuitive, even in challenging conditions on the water.

Clear audio at sea

Inside, a bridge-tied load (BTL) amplifier doubles the audio output, while a built-in 700 mW speaker delivers crisp sound that travels across the deck. A 6 W transmit power option extends your communication range when you need it most.

Rugged, waterproof performance

Icon’s reputation for protection continues with waterproof and submersible construction that’s tested to survive submersion in 1.5 m of water for 30 minutes. Aqua-Quake helps drain water, keeping the speaker area clearer after splashes.

Power that lasts, plus smart tools

On a typical day, the large lithium-ion battery supports up to 18 hours of operation. The device includes practical features such as a power save mode, a four-level battery indicator, and versatile listening options. Optional accessories include a waterproof speaker-mic for shared use.
