ICOM IC-701
COMPUTERIZED REMOTE CONTROLLER MODEL: IC-RM3
This vintage
remote controller designed to run with the ICOM IC-701 HF transceiver or the
IC-211 or IC245E VHF transceivers, may be suited to someone looking for the
accessory to complete their radio shack’s vintage ICOM line-up.
The IC-RM3
simply connects to the required radio via a multi pin connector & lead, to
the accessory input socket on the rear of the transceiver.
The ‘EXT’
position is selected on the radio’s band switch & then the remote can be
programmed to change the band and the frequency on the radio externally. The
controller can be mounted up to approx 1.2 meters away from radio.
It was
originally designed to mount on either a vehicle dash or console, while the
radio was situated under the seat or on floor or similar. It could also be used
in the shack while the radio sat on a shelf, etc.
The unit has
the required cable & connector attached & ready to fit to radio.
This unit is
in very clean condition for the age & executed all functions correctly when
last used.
The
fluorescent display was sharp & bright & digits corresponded correctly
with selected frequencies.
This unit has
the mounting bracket & original owners handbook supplied with it.
There are no
radios or other accessories supplied or included with this listing.
Instructions
are printed on front of remote & within oper manual.
Due to the
fact that the unit is approx 44 years old & that it had last been in use
over 4 years prior to the listing, I offer no guarantees on continued trouble-free
operation.
The item is
offered for sale on an ‘as is’ basis.
There are no
refunds or returns offered with this listing.
The potential
buyer should use discretion with decision to make purchase.
These remote
units are rare nowadays & make a good addition to complete a vintage ICOM
radio display.
Also have
IC-701 transceiver, IC-701PS PSU & IC-AH1 Ant tuner for sale in other
listings.
