User manual ICOM IC-756

[. . . ] It's the perfect way to combine a ham's love for both the hobby and the great outdoors! The recommended way to pack your IC-756 Controller pouch secured on multi-bag Pouches for stowing controller and hand mic when not in use. The rain cover is included in the multi-bag. Use the loops to secure your portable antenna for safe travel. DC power cables Stowage area for the optional BP-228 battery pack Protect your multi-bag and gear with the rain cover. Great for portable use, the handy controller case can be easily removed from the multi-bag and attached to your belt. Pouch for stowing coaxial cables Microphone hanger Storage area for IC-756 Carry your log book here Repositionable protection pad, allowing you to customize the size of the stowage space Exterior loops securely hold an antenna to the backpack Cable exit for separation and coaxial cables, when connected to the IC-756 in the bag. Pouch for stowing the microphone Stowage area for the optional separate cable, OPC-581/OPC-587 The antenna is not supplied from Icom. [. . . ] During portable operation, make sure not to harm other people or environments. Icom's DSP technology allows you to pick-out the weak signals! DSP capabilities give you tools to reduce interfering signals, or just to dig weak signals out of the dirt. The noise reduction separates desired signals from noise and reduces the noise components for a clearer received signal, while the auto notch tracks and eliminates interference from a solid tone signal. * Optional UT-106 required depending on version. 160­6m full coverage internal automatic antenna tuner, and low current PA The newly designed PA unit and antenna tuner, specifically designed for the IC-756, extends operating time by reducing the voltage and current consumption. The antenna tuner utilizes low current latching relays to cover 160­6m. While on a 9. 6V DC source or less than 11V DC, many functions of the IC-756 are controlled by the microprocessor to extend the battery life. While in low current mode, the IC-756 automatically switches to 5W output power (2W AM). While on 13. 8V DC, the output switches to 10W (4W AM). PA unit Antenna tuner Auto power scale meter There's no need to calculate the output power, as the IC-756 automatically scales the power meter according to the output power of the rig. The full scale reading of the meter will indicate the power output setting of the rig. For example, if you are running at 5W mode, the full scale reading will be 5W. · Selectivity : SSB, CW (2. 4kHz) More than 2. 4kHz/­6dB Less than 4. 0kHz/­60dB AM/FM-N (6kHz) More than 9. 0kHz/­6dB Less than 20kHz/­50dB FM (15kHz) More than 15kHz/­6dB Less than 30kHz/­50dB · Spurious and image rejection ratio: HF bands More than 70dB 50MHz More than 65dB (except IF point) · Audio output power : More than 1. 0W (at 13. 8V DC) (8 load, 10% distortion) More than 0. 5W (at 9. 6V DC) · RIT variable range : ±9. 99kHz · PHONES connector : 3-conductor 3. 5 (d) mm (1/8) · EXT SP connector : 2-conductor 3. 5 (d) mm (1/8)/8 (threshold; pre-amp on) Max. audio Stand-by at 13. 8V 0. 1­10W 0. 1­4W 3. 0A (at 10W) 1. 2A ­ at 9. 6V 0. 1­5W 0. 1­2W 2. 0A (at 5W) 450mA typ. 300mA typ.
