CAUTION NOTE Equipment damage may occur. If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk or personal injury, fire or electric shock. PRECAUTIONS R WARNING HIGH VOLTAGE! NEVER attach an antenna or internal antenna connector during transmission. This may result in an electrical shock or burn. R WARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC outlet directly. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric shock. R WARNING! NEVER mount the transceiver (main unit) overhead. The weight of the transceiver is approximately 8 kg, but its apparent weight will increase several fold due to wave shocks or vibration. The transceiver must be mounted on a flat hard surface only. R NEVER connect a power source of more than 16 V DC, such as a 24 V battery. This connection could cause a fire or ruin the transceiver. R NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the ship or vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury. R NEVER let metal, wire or other objects touch any internal part or connectors on the rear panel of the transceiver. This may result in an electric shock. R NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids. DO NOT use chemical agents such as benzine or alcohol when cleaning, as they can damage the transceiver surface. During maritime mobile operation, KEEP the transceiver and microphone as far away as possible (at least 1 m; 3 ft) from the magnetic navigation compass to prevent erroneous indications. Use Icom microphones and/or headset only (supplied or optional). Other manufacturer’s microphones and/or headset have different pin assignments, and connection to the IC-M802 may damage the transceiver. AVOID using or placing the transceiver in areas with temperatures below –20°C (–4°F) or above +60°C (+140°F). AVOID placing the transceiver in excessively dusty environments or in direct sunlight. AVOID placing the transceiver against walls or putting anything on top of the transceiver. This will obstruct heat dissipation. Place unit in a secure place to avoid inadvertent use by children. BE CAREFUL! The heatsink will become hot when operating the transceiver continuously for long periods.

RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT ■ Functions for receive D Squelch function The squelch function detects signals with voice components and squelches (mutes) unwanted signals such as unmodulated beat signals. This provides quiet stand-by. [2 SQL] When you need to receive weak signals, the squelch should be turned OFF. ➥ Push [F] then [2 SQL] to switch the function ON and OFF. [F] • “SQL” appears when the squelch function is turned ON. D Noise blanker The noise blanker function reduces pulse type noise such as that coming from engine ignitions, etc. [1 NB] The noise blanker may distort reception of strong signals. In such cases, the noise blanker should be turned OFF. ➥ Push [F] then [1 NB] to switch the function ON and OFF. [F] • “NB” appears when the squelch function is turned ON. D AGC OFF function The receive gain is automatically adjusted according to received signal strength with the AGC (Automatic Gain Control) function to prevent distortion from strong signals and to obtain a constant output level. When receiving weak signals with adjacent strong signals or noise, the AGC function may reduce the sensitivity. In this situation, the AGC function should be deactivated. ➥ Push [F] then [5 AGC] to switch the function ON and OFF. [5 AGC] [F] • “ A G C” appears when the squelch function is turned OFF. D RF gain setting The receiver gain can be reduced with the RF gain setting. This may help to remove undesired weak signals while monitoring strong signals. Usually, the AGC function reduces the RF gain according to the receive signal strength and these weak signals are removed. However, during no signal reception, these weak signals may not be heard. In such cases, the RF gain may be useful for setting a minimum level at which to hear signals. q Push [F] then [6 RF-G] to select the RF gain set mode, as shown at right. w Rotate [CH] selector to set the desired minimum cutting level. • “0” to “9” are available. • S-meter shows the minimum permitted level. e Push [SET] to exit the RF gain set mode. 11 4 RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT ■ Functions for receive (continued) D Clarity control Voice signals received from other stations may be difficult to receive. This may sometimes happen if a station is transmitting slightly off frequency. In such cases, you can compensate by using the clarity control. When receiving weak signals with adjacent strong signals or noise, the AGC function may reduce the sensitivity. In this situation, the AGC function should be deactivated. q Push [F] then [RX CLAR] to switch the function ON and OFF.
