Icom America recognized these challenges and launched a complete line of radios based on the APCO Project 25 interoperability standard that are both cost-effective and easily implemented. To accomplish this, Icom developed a method that enables agencies to convert the transceivers from analog to digital at their own pace, which ultimately maximizes the agency’s communications system investment. Anchoring this line of P25-compatible equipment is the IC-F70/F80 Series of VHF/UHF portable transceivers.
