    The IC 228H offers a nice array of features for the mobile ham radio operator. Plus it has two power levels...5w LOW and 45w HIGH. This would make a good backup radio or something to setup at home so you can participate in the Skywarn nets.

    You must have a FCC issued Amateur Radio Technician Class or higher license to transmit with this radio.

    Radio is about 23 years old, and the LCD display backlight doesn't work anymore...the LCD is perfectly readable in the daylight but no dice in the dark.

    Includes Microphone, and copy of the operations manual

    Receive: 138 Mhz - 174 Mhz (Can receive NWS broadcasts)
    Transmit: 144 Mhz - 150Mhz

    Power: 13.8 VDC +/- 15% (Negative Ground)

    $50.00 cash money and it is all yours - Yup...fifty bucks. And it works.

    First email that says I'LL TAKE IT gets it. Pickup near Whiteland.

    What's msrp when new? I'm interested

    I don't know...$350 or so? I bought it used. It's fifty bucks now.

    NOTE: This radio was discontinued by Icom in 1990...so it's at least 23 years old. Not 10 like I thought.

    Fifty Bucks

    Yes it does PL tones, so you can use it on the local repeaters. The 146.700 doesn't use PL tones so you are good either way.

    This is not a hand held. It's a mobile radio. Google IC-228H for more info.
