<H1>IC-V80E VHF & IC-T70E Dual Band Handportable Amateur Radios, New!</H1>
<P><FONT face=Tahoma>Icom radios are built tough, and the new IC-T70E VHF/UHF
dual band and IC-V80E VHF single band handportables are no exception.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Tahoma>These new additions to Icom’s Amateur radio product range
offer military rugged construction, water resistance and superior protection
against the elements to MIL-STD-810 and IP54 standards. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Tahoma>Both models feature great audio employing a BTL
(bridge-tied load) amplifier that doubles the audio output. Together with a
large speaker, this delivers 750mW of loud and intelligible audio making them
ideal for operating in a noisy environment. <BR><BR>Add a simple,
straightforward design, long lasting battery life, built in VOX function and you
have a choice of two models that are ideal for basic, on-the-go operations.
<BR><BR>The IC-T70E is available now. The IC-V80E will be available from June
2010. Both models will be supplied with BP-264 1400mAh Ni-MH battery pack,
charger, belt clip and antenna. </FONT></P>
