IC-M220
High Quality, Excellent Performance
VHF Fixed Mount – Export Only
The M220 gives boaters an entry-level VHF fixed mount with DSC Class D at a great value. This small compact unit includes a large, easy-to-read LCD with a dot-matrix display, IPX7 rating, and Icom’s own AquaQuake draining function for optimal audio. The M2200 is a perfect unit for boats that only need a basic radio or boats with limited space.
