BASIC OPERATION

■ Transmitting

CAUTION:  Transmitting without an antenna will dam-

age the transceiver.

  NOTE: To prevent interference, listen on the channel 

before transmitting by opening the squelch. To open 
the squelch, rotate [DIAL] counterclockwise or push 
[SQL

Z

 on the microphone.

q Set the operating frequency. (p. 5)
 • 

 

Adjust the output power if desired. See below for 
the details.

w Hold down [PTT] to transmit.
 • 

The 

“

$” icon appears.

 

• The S/RF indicator shows the output power level.

 • 

 

The One-Touch PTT function can be used. See 
page 11 for details.

e  Speak into the microphone at your normal voice level.
 • 

 

DO NOT hold the microphone too close to your mouth, 
or speak too loudly. This may distort the signal.

r Release [PTT] to receive.

IMPORTANT! (for 65 W transmission): 
The IC-2300H has a built-in current detector circuit 
which protects the power amplifi er from excessive cur-
rent fl ow. When excessive current fl ow is detected, the 
circuit automatically reduces the transmit output power 
to approximately 25 watts. 
The IC-2300H has a thermal detector circuit too, which 
protects the power amplifi er from excessive heat. As 
the temperature increases, the circuit automatically re-
duces the transmit output power to approximately 10 
to 20 watts.
