Icom America History
Icom America is part of Icom Incorporated, which was founded in Japan in 1954. The US branch was established in 1979.
Since then, Icom America has continued to grow, expanding its product range and working with distributors to serve mining, tunneling, marine and aviation industries.
Icom Product Range
The IC-F3202DEX/F4202DEX digital two-way radio series is specifically designed for use in mining, oil and chemical industries. In dPMR digital format it provides basic conventional operation, as well as a dPMR Mode 2 multi-site radio system. It runs on analogue and IDAS digital modes.
The F3201DEX series’ lone worker function detects if a radio has not been operational for a pre-set period. If a button is not pressed following a notification sound, an emergency signal is transmitted to alert other workers or a dispatcher. The man-down function also sends a crisis signal if it is left in a horizontal position.

Based on its extensive experience and impressive portfolio, Icom is regarded as one of the world’s leading radio manufacturers. All product ranges are designed to the highest specifications and include base-station, mobile and handheld units covering many frequency bands.
