Clear Voice Boost and It Floats!

Clear voice + voice boost

In marine environments there are many sources of noise that can affect the quality of your communications, such as engine noise, breaking surf and more. The IC-M36 automatically adjusts the outgoing voice and the incoming audio to compensate for the ambient noise level: whether you' re in a loud environment or in a quiet area, the IC-M36 ensures your radio conversation is sent and received as clearly as possible.
And yes, it floats

Continuing the legacy of the IC-M34, the IC-M36 floats back up to the surface if dropped overboard, even if the optional speaker microphone, HM-165, is attached.
AquaQuake draining function

The vibrating " buzz " sound clears water away from the speaker grill.
LOUD button

When you need an instant “ boost” in the volume, a simple push of the “ LOUD” button gives you full volume immediately. In addition, holding the “ LOUD” button mutes the audio output.
Noise cancelling microphone

The sub-microphone on the rear panel inverts phase and cancels out ambient noise from the main microphone. As a result, the IC-M36 reduces the affect of background noise ( particularly trebly noise) from the transmitted signal and makes it easier to catch voice communication.
Automatic volume adjustment

When in an engine room or high noise environment, the sub-microphone detects the ambient noise and the IC-M36 automatically increases the volume output to suit the surrounding environment.
Low power consumption

Although the IC-M36 delivers a high 6W RF output and 700mW audio output, its current saving circuit offers a practical 8 hours* of operating time with the supplied 980mAh Lithium-Ion battery pack.
* Typical operation with Tx ( Hi) : Rx: standby= 5: 5: 90
Large buttons and slim dimensions

Thanks to the large, easy-to-operate buttons, the IC-M36 provides intuitive operation. A pinched-waist slender body makes it easy to hold and carry the radio, and is surprisingly compact for a floating radio.
