mode.
sThe last used access repeater is displayed.
- If the displayed frequency band on the SUB Band is

NOTE: The digital mode is vastly different than the

the squelch setting in the digital mode will not open
it to hear the hiss of “white noise,” like it does in the
FM mode. It is only activated for digital squelch func-
tions such as CSQL (Digital code squelch) or DSQL

MEMORY OPERATION

N'ENERALDESCRIPTION
The transceiver has 106 Memory channels in each fre-
quency band. (99 regular, 6 scan edges and 1 call)
The Memory mode is very useful to quickly change to
often-used frequencies.
While in the memory mode, all 106 Memory channels
are tunable, which means the programmed frequency
can be tuned temporarily with [MAIN DIAL].
NOTE:
Memory data can be erased by static electricity, elec-
tric transients, etc. In addition, they can be erased by
malfunction and during repairs. Therefore, we recom-
mend that memory data be backed up or be saved
to a PC using the optional CS-9100 CLONING SOFT-
WARE.

If you change the data called up from a memo pad,
the stored temporary pad data is replaced with the
changed data.
N-EMOPADFUNCTION
The transceiver has a Memo pad function to store
the displayed data for easy writing and recalling. The
memo pads are separate from the Memory channels.
The default number of memo pads is 5. However, you
can increase the number to 10 in the “Memopad Num-
bers” item of the Set mode, if desired. (p. 164)
Memo pads are convenient when you want to memo-
rize the displayed data temporarily, such as when you
find a DX station in a pile-up, or when a desired station
is busy for a long time and you want to temporarily
search for other stations.
Use the transceiver’s memo pads instead of relying on
hastily scribbled notes that are easily misplaced.

SATELLITE OPERATION
Both Satellite Mode B (435 MHz uplink, 145 MHz
downlink) and Mode J (145 MHz uplink, 435 MHz
downlink) can be operated with the IC-9100, and
Mode L can be operated when the optional UX-9100
1200 MHz BAND UNIT is installed.
Satellite communications is possible only when a sat-
ellite is in view and its transponder is operating.
N3ATELLITENOTES
1. NEVER set the output power too high. Too much
power will shorten the satellite’s life.
Set your transmit power so that your downlink sig-
nal level is lower than the beacon’s signal level.
2. Confirm a satellite’s operating mode in advance
through documentation (magazines, etc.) or via ap-
propriate satellite tracking software. In the wrong
mode, you cannot use the satellite, even if you re-
ceive its beacon signal.
3. Preamplifiers may be necessary to receive satel-
lite signals. Optional amplifiers, AG-25, AG-35 and
AG-1200* (for the UX-9100), can be used with the
IC-9100. (p. 71)
* AG-1200 has been discontinued, but it can be still be
used.
4. When you use a reverse tracking satellite in the
SSB mode, use LSB for the uplink frequency and
USB for the downlink frequency.
s7HENUSINGANORMALTRACKINGSATELLITEIN33"MODE
use USB for both the uplink and downlink frequencies.

15 DATA COMMUNICATION
When the data transmission speed is set to 9600 bps,
the data signal coming from the TNC is applied exclu-
sively to the internal limiter circuitry to automatically
maintain band width.
NEVER apply data levels from the TNC of over
0.6 Vp-p. Otherwise the transceiver will not be able to
maintain the band width, and your transmitted signal
may possibly interfere with other stations.
D5SINGALEVELMETERORSYNCHROSCOPE
When using a level meter or synchroscope, adjust the
TX audio output level (DATA IN level) from the TNC as
follows.
0.4 Vp-p
(0.2 Vrms) : recommended level
0.2–0.5Vp-p
(0.1–0.25 Vrms) : acceptable level

e If the transceiver fails to transmit the test data, or
transmits sporadically, (TX/RX indicator doesn’t
light or it flashes):
- Decrease the TNC output level until the transmit
indicator lights continuously.
If transmission is not successful, even though the

N/PENINGTHETRANSCEIVERSCASE
Icom strongly suggests that the customer have their
dealer or Icom distributor, for a reasonable fee, in-
stall Icom options at the time of the order. Icom un-
derstands that even the simplest of installations de-
mands the judgment of a trained Icom technician.
Therefore, Icom will not be responsible for damage
to the optional unit, or subsequent damage to the
transceiver due to user installation problems. The
option’s or the transceiver’s Warranty can be voided
in such situations, at the sole judgment of Icom.
For those customers who still wish to install their
own options, knowing the risks and possible con-
sequences, the following information is provided for
information purposes only.
The following are instructions for removing the covers
of the IC-9100.
R WARNING!
Turn OFF the power and disconnect
the DC power cable from the transceiver before per-
forming any work on the transceiver. Otherwise,
there is danger of electric shock and/or equipment
damage.
q Remove the two screws from the carrying handle
and remove it from the transceiver.
w Remove the seven screws from the top of the trans-
ceiver and the six screws from the sides, then lift up
the top cover.

t Replace the speaker cable, PA shielding plate, top
cover and screws to their original position.
CAUTION:
DO NOT pull the speaker cable when
removing the PA shielding plate, or DO NOT put the
speaker cable under the PA shielding plate when
replacing it. This could damage the transceiver.

N&USEREPLACEMENT
If a fuse blows, or the transceiver stops functioning,
find the source of the problem, and repair it. Then re-
place the damaged fuse with a new, adequately rated
fuse.
R WARNING!
Turn OFF the power and disconnect
the DC power cable from the transceiver before per-
forming any work on the transceiver. Otherwise,
there is danger of electric shock, equipment dam-
age and/or fire infury.
The IC-9100 has two fuse types installed for trans-
ceiver protection.

INSTALLATION NOTES
For amateur base station installations it is recom-
mended that the forward clearance in front of the an-
tenna array is calculated relative to the EIRP (Effective
Isotropic Radiated Power). The clearance height below
the antenna array can be determined in most cases
from the RF power at the antenna input terminals.
As different exposure limits have been recommended
for different frequencies, a relative table shows a
guideline for installation considerations.
Below 30 MHz, the recommended limits are specified
in terms of V/m or A/m fields as they are likely to fall
within the near-field region. Similarly, the antennas
may be physically short in terms of electrical length
and that the installation will require some antenna
matching device which can create local, high inten-
sity magnetic fields. Analysis of such MF installations
is best considered in association with published guid-
ance notes such as the FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition
97-01 and its annexes relative to amateur transmitter
installations.
The EC recommended limits are almost identical to
the FCC specified ‘uncontrolled’ limits and tables exist
that show pre-calculated safe distances for different
antenna types for different frequency bands. Further
information can be found at http://www.arrl.org/.
s4YPICALAMATEURRADIOINSTALLATION
Exposure distance assumes that the predominant ra-
diation pattern is forward and that radiation vertically
downwards is at unity gain (sidelobe suppression is
equal to main lobe gain). This is true of almost every
gain antenna today. Exposed persons are assumed
to be beneath the antenna array and have a typical
height of 1.8 m.
The figures assume the worst case emission of a con-
stant carrier.
For the bands 10 MHz and higher the following power
density limits have been recommended:
10–400 MHz 2 W/sq m
435 MHz 2.2 W/sq m

In all cases any possible risk depends on the trans-
mitter being activated for long periods. (actual recom-
mendation limits are specified as an average during 6
minutes) Normally the transmitter is not active for long
periods of time. Some radio licenses will require that a
timer circuit automatically cuts off the transmitter after
1–2 minutes etc.
Similarly some modes of transmission, SSB, CW, AM
etc. have a lower ‘average’ output power and the as-
sessed risk is even lower.
Versions of the IC-9100 which display the
“CE” symbol on the serial number label,
comply with the essential requirements of
the European Radio and Telecommunica-
tion Terminal Directive 1999/5/EC.
This warning symbol indicates that this
equipment operates in non-harmonised
frequency bands and/or may be subject to
licensing conditions in the country of use.
Be sure to check that you have the correct
version of this radio or the correct program-
ming of this radio, to comply with national
licensing requirement.
