FCC INFORMATION

• FOR CLASS B UNINTENTIONAL RADIATORS:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply

with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to

part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed

to provide reasonable protection against harmful

interference in a residential installation. This equip-

ment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency

energy and, if not installed and used in accordance

with the instructions, may cause harmful interference

to radio communications. However, there is no guar-

antee that interference will not occur in a particular

installation. If this equipment does cause harmful

interference to radio or television reception, which can

be determined by turning the equipment off and on,

the user is encouraged to try to correct the interfer-

ence by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment

and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a

circuit different from that to which the receiver is

connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV

technician for help.

PRECAUTIONS

R WARNING RF EXPOSURE! This device emits

Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Extreme caution

should be observed when operating this device. If

you have any questions regarding RF exposure and

safety standards please refer to the Federal Com-

munications Commission Office of Engineering and

Technology’s report on Evaluating Compliance with

FCC Guidelines for Human Radio Frequency Electro-

magnetic Fields (OET Bulletin 65).

R WARNING HIGH VOLTAGE! NEVER touch an

antenna or internal antenna connector during trans-

mission. This may result in an electrical shock or burn.

R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver

while driving a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full

attention—anything less may result in an accident.

R NEVER apply AC power to the [DC13.8V] socket

on the transceiver rear panel. This could cause a ﬁre

or damage the transceiver.

R NEVER apply more than 16 V DC, such as a 24 V

battery, to the [DC13.8V] socket on the transceiver

rear panel. This could cause a fire or damage the

transceiver.

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 or this

could cause a ﬁre or damage the transceiver.

R NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or

any liquids.

DO NOT use or place the transceiver in areas with

temperatures below –10°C (+14°F) or above +60°C

(+140°F). Be aware that temperatures on a vehicle’s

dashboard can exceed +80°C (+176°F), resulting in

permanent damage to the transceiver if left there for

extended periods.

DO NOT place the transceiver in excessively dusty

environments or in direct sunlight.

DO NOT place the transceiver against walls or put

anything on top of the transceiver. This will obstruct

heat dissipation.

Place unit in a secure place to avoid inadvertent use

by children.

During mobile operation, NEVER place the trans-

ceiver where air bag deployment may be obstructed.

During mobile operation, DO NOT place the trans-

ceiver where hot or cold air blows directly onto it.

During mobile operation, DO NOT operate the trans-

ceiver without running the vehicle’s engine. When the

transceiver’s power is ON and your vehicle’s engine

is OFF, the vehicle’s battery will quickly become ex-

hausted.

Make sure the transceiver power is OFF before start-

ing the vehicle engine. This will avoid possible dam-

age to the transceiver by ignition voltage spikes.

During maritime mobile operation, keep the trans-

ceiver and microphone as far away as possible from

the magnetic navigation compass to prevent errone-

ous indications.

BE CAREFUL! The rear panel will become hot when

operating the transceiver continuously for long peri-

ods.

BE CAREFUL! If a linear amplifier is connected, set

the transceiver’s RF output power to less than the

linear ampliﬁer’s maximum input level, otherwise, the

linear ampliﬁer will be damaged.

Use Icom microphones only (supplied or optional).

Other manufacturer’s microphones have different pin

assignments, and connection to the IC-7200 may

damage the transceiver.

For U.S.A. only

Caution: Changes or modifications to this trans-

ceiver, not expressly approved by Icom Inc., could

void your authority to operate this transceiver under

FCC regulations.

q PASSBAND TUNING CONTROLS [TWIN PBT]

Adjust the receiver’s DSP filter passband width.

(p. 46)

• The limit of the variable range depends on the pass-

band width and mode. The limit of the variable range

is half of the passband width, and PBT is adjustable in

200

Hz (AM) or 50 Hz (other models) steps.

• Rotate both [TWIN PBT] controls (PBT1 and PBT2) to

the same position shifts the IF.

4 What is the PBT control?

Generally, the PBT electronically narrows the IF

passband width to reject interference. This trans-

ceiver uses the DSP circuit for the PBT function.

Unpacking

After unpacking, immediately report any damage to

the delivering carrier or dealer. Keep the shipping car-

tons.

For a description and a diagram of accessory equip-

ment included with the IC-7200, see ‘Supplied acces-

sories’ on p. i of this manual.

■

Selecting a location

Select a location for the transceiver that allows ade-

quate air circulation, free from extreme heat, cold, or

vibrations, and away from TV sets, TV antenna ele-

ments, radios and other electromagnetic sources.

The base of the transceiver has an adjustable stand

for desktop use. Set the stand to one of two angles

depending on your operating conditions.

Stand

■

Grounding

To prevent electrical shock, television interference

(TVI), broadcast interference (BCI) and other prob-

lems, ground the transceiver through the GROUND

terminal on the rear panel.

For best results, connect a copper or copper-plated

ground rod driven into the earth. Make the distance

between the [GND] terminal and ground as short and

straight as possible.

R WARNING: NEVER connect the [GND]

terminal to a gas or electric conduit, since the con-

nection could cause an explosion or electric shock.

[GND]

■

Antenna connection

For radio communications the antenna is of criti-

cal importance for output power and sensitivity. Use

well-matched 50 ø antennas and coaxial feedline. An

SWR (standing wave ratio) of 1.5:1 or lower is recom-

mended when transmitting.

CAUTION: Protect your transceiver from light-

ning by using a lightning arrestor.

Antenna SWR

Each antenna is tuned for a specified frequency

range and SWR may be increased out-of-range.

When the SWR is higher than approx. 2.0:1, the

transceiver’s power drops to protect the ﬁnal transis-

tor. In this case, an optional antenna tuner is useful

to match the transceiver and antenna. Low SWR al-

lows full power for transmitting even when using the

antenna tuner. The IC-7200 has an SWR meter to

monitor the antenna SWR continuously

Battery connections

•  RWARNING NEVER connect to a battery

without supplying a DC fuse, otherwise a fire

hazard occurs.

• 

NEVER connect the transceiver to a 24 V

battery.

The transceiver may not receive well on some

frequencies when installed in a hybrid vehicle, or

any type of electric vehicle (fuel cell vehicle). This

is because vehicle’s electric components such as

the inverter system generate a lot of electric

noise.

• 

DO NOT use a cigarette lighter socket as a power

source when operating in a vehicle. The plug may

cause voltage drops and ignition noise may be

superimposed onto transmit or receive audio.

• Use a rubber grommet when passing the DC

power cable through a metal plate to prevent a

short circuit.

The IC-7200 is not certiﬁed for vehicle installation

in European countries.

BASIC OPERATION

■ VFO description

VFO is an abbreviation of Variable Frequency Oscilla-

tor, and traditionally refers to an oscillator.

The IC-7200 VFO can store a frequency and an oper-

ating mode.

You can call up a desired frequency to the VFO with

the keypad or the memory copy function (p. 63). You

can also change the frequency with [DIAL] and select

an operating mode with

MODE

or call up previously

accessed frequency and modes with the band stacking

The IC-7200 has two VFOs, specially suited for split

frequency operation. The VFOs are called VFO A and

VFO B. You can use the desired VFO to call up a fre-

quency and operating mode for operation.

D Differences between VFO mode and memory mode

VFO MODE

Each VFO shows a frequency and operating mode.

If the frequency or operating mode is changed, the

VFO automatically memorizes the new frequency or

operating mode.

When the VFO is selected from another VFO or

memory mode, the last used frequency and operat-

ing mode for that VFO appears.

[EXAMPLE]

Changed frequency (14.123 MHz) does not appear and

memorized frequency (14.100 MHz) appears instead.

The frequency is

channel is selected.

The frequency is

VFO is selected

again.

Changed frequency (14.123 MHz) appears.

MEMORY MODE (pgs. 61–64)

Each memory channel shows a frequency and op-

erating mode like a VFO. Even if the frequency or

mode is changed, the memory channel does not

memorize the new frequency or operating mode.

When the memory channel is selected from another

memory channel or VFO mode, the memorized

frequency and operating mode appear even if the

memory channel settings, frequency and mode, are

changed before selecting another memory channel

or VFO mode.

[EXAMPLE]

BASIC OPERATION

■ Selecting an operating band

The transceiver has a band stacking register. This

function automatically memorizes the last operating

frequency and mode used on a particular band.

This is convenient for contest operation.

See the table below for a list of the bands available

and the default settings for each register.

D About 5 MHz band operation (USA version only)

Operation on the 5 MHz band is allowed on 5 dis-

crete frequencies and must adhere to the following:

• USB mode

• Maximum of 50 watts ERP

(Effective Radiated Power)

• 2.8 kHz bandwidth

It is the operator’s responsibility to set all controls so

that the transmission in this band meets the stringent

conditions under which we may use these frequen-

cies.

NOTE: We recommend that you store these fre-

quencies, mode and filter settings into the mem-

ory channel for easy recall.

FUNCTIONS FOR RECEIVE

■ Twin PBT operation

The general PBT (Passband Tuning) function elec-

tronically narrows the IF passband width by shifting

the IF frequency slightly outside of the IF ﬁlter pass-

band to reject interference. This transceiver uses the

DSP circuit for the PBT function.

By rotating both [TWIN PBT] controls (inner/outer;

PBT1 and PBT2) with the same position, PBT func-

tions as an IF shift control.

The limit of the variable range depends on the pass-

band width and mode. The limit of the variable range

is half of the passband width, and PBT is adjustable

in 200 Hz (AM) or 50 Hz (other models) steps.

FUNCTIONS FOR TRANSMIT

■ Split frequency operation

Split frequency operation allows you to transmit and

receive in the same mode on two different frequen-

cies. The split frequency operation is performed using

2 frequencies in VFO A and VFO B.

The transmit and receive frequencies must be in

the same band

The following is an example of setting 7.0620 MHz for

receiving and 7.0750 MHz for transmitting.

ANTENNA TUNER OPERATION

■ Optional AT-180 automatic antenna tuner operation

The AT-180 automatic antenna tuner matches the

IC-7200 to the connected antenna automatically.

Once the tuner matches an antenna, the variable

capacitor settings are memorized as a preset point

for each frequency range (100 kHz steps). Therefore,

when you change the frequency range, the variable

capacitors are automatically preset to the memorized

point.

NOTE:

• The AT-180 can match both HF and 50 MHz

bands. However, operation is different for the HF

and 50 MHz bands.

• When connecting the AT-180, the IC-7200’s out-

put power must be more than 10 W. Otherwise,

the AT-180 may not be tuned correctly. (AT-180’s

minimum operating input power is 8 W.)

CAUTION: NEVER transmit with the tuner ON

when no antenna is connected. This will damage

both the transceiver and antenna tuner.

D Manual tuning

During SSB operation on HF bands at low voice lev-

els, the AT-180 may not be tuned correctly. In such

cases, manual tuning is helpful.

Push and hold

TUNER

for 1 sec. to start manual tun-

ing.

• When CW mode is selected, a side tone is emitted, and

“

” indicator blinks; then, the previous mode is se-

lected.

If the tuner cannot reduce the SWR to less than

1.5:1 after 20 sec. of tuning, “ ” indicator disap-

pears. In this case, check the following:

• the antenna connection and feedline

• the antenna SWR (p. 30; meter function, p. 60;

Measuring SWR)

Through inhibit (HF bands only)

The AT-180 has a through inhibit condition. When

selecting this condition, the tuner can be used at

poor SWR’s. In this case, automatic tuning in the

HF bands activates only when exceeding SWR 3:1.

Therefore, manual tuning is necessary each time you

change the frequency. Although termed “through in-

hibit,” the tuner will be set to the “through” conﬁgura-

tion if the SWR is higher than 3:1 after tuning.

CONVENIENT

• Tuner sensitive condition (HF bands only)

If you require critical tuning at any time during trans-

mission, select the tuner sensitive condition.

See p. 68 for selection.

• Automatic tuner start (HF bands only)

If you want to turn OFF the tuner under conditions

of VSWR 1.5:1 or less, use “automatic tuner on” and

turn the tuner OFF. See p. 76 for the automatic tuner

function.

• PTT tune function (p. 76)

The AT-180 is tuned when [PTT] is pushed after the

frequency is changed (more than 1%) if the AT-180 is

turned ON. This function removes the “push and hold

” operation and activates first transmission

on the new frequency.

This function is turned ON in the set mode.

(default)

The tuner operating condition is set by

S2 described below.

B THROUGH INHIBIT

The tuner tunes the antenna even when

the antenna has poor SWR

(up to VSWR

3:1 after tuning)

. In this case, manual tun-

ing is necessary each time you change

the frequency although the tuner auto-

matically starts tuning when the VSWR

is higher than 3:1. This setting is called

“through inhibit,” however, the tuner is

set to “through” if the VSWR is higher

than 3:1 after tuning.

C TUNER SENSITIVE CONDITION

The tuner tunes each time you transmit

(except SSB mode). Therefore, the lowest

SWR is obtained at any given time.

For SSB mode, the same condition as

the “D” position.

(default)

NORMAL

The tuner tunes when the SWR is higher

than 1.5:1. Therefore, the tuner activates

only when tuning

is necessary.

ANTENNA TUNER OPERATION

■ Optional AH-4 automatic antenna tuner operation

The AH-4 matches the IC-7200 to a long wire antenna

more than 7 m/23 ft long (3.5 MHz and above).

• See p. 14 for connection.

• See the AH-4 instruction manual for AH-4 installation and

antenna connection details.

AH-4 setting example:

For mobile operation

For outdoor operation

Long wire

Optional AH-2b

antenna element

R DANGER!: HIGH VOLTAGE!

NEVER touch the antenna element while tuning or

transmitting.

NEVER operate the AH-4 without an antenna wire.

The tuner and transceiver will be damaged.

NEVER operate the AH-4 when it is ungrounded.

Transmitting before tuning may damage the trans-

ceiver. Note that the AH-4 cannot tune when using a

⁄2λ long wire or on a multiple of that frequency.

D AH-4 operation

Tuning is required for each frequency. Be sure to

re-tune the antenna before transmitting when you

change the frequency—even slightly.

q Set the desired frequency in an HF band.

• The AH-4 will not operate on frequencies outside of

ham bands.

w Push and hold

TUNER

for 1 sec.

• “ ” indicator blinks while tuning.

e “ ” indicator is still ON after the tuning is

completed.

• When the connected wire cannot be tuned, “ ”

indicator goes out, and the AH-4 is bypassed and the

antenna wire is connected to the antenna connector

on the transceiver directly.

r To bypass the AH-4 manually, push

TUNER

• “ ” indicator goes out.

Appears when the antenna tuner ON.

Blinks while tuning.

CONVENIENT

• PTT tune function (p. 76)

The AH-4 is always tuned when [PTT] is pushed

after the frequency is changed (more than 1%). This

function removes the “push and hold

TUNER

” op-

eration and activates first transmission on the new

frequency.

This function is turned ON in the set mode.

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 (Effec-

tive Isotropic Radiated Power). The clearance height

below the antenna array can be determined in most

cases from the RF power at the antenna input termi-

nals.

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 intensity

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/.

• Typical 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

constant carrier.

For the bands 10 MHz and higher the following power

density limits have been recommended:

10–50 MHz 2 W/sq m

Vertical clearance by EIRP output

1 Watts 2.1 m

10 Watts 2.8 m

25 Watts 3.4 m

100 Watts 5 m

1000 Watts 12 m

Forward clearance by EIRP output

100 Watts 2 m

1000 Watts 6.5 m

10,000 Watts 20 m

100,000 Watts 65 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.

BAND VOLTAGE MODIFICATION

■ Band voltage modiﬁcation

If you want to connect an external unit which can be

controlled by the band voltage from [ACC] connector,

the modiﬁcation is necessary as at right.

The band voltage appears from pin 5 of [ACC] con-

nector after modification (q) is completed, or the

regulated 8 V appears from pin 1 of [ACC] connector

after modiﬁcation (w) is completed.

Performing this modification is the customer’s re-

sponsibility. Icom does not guarantee this modiﬁca-

tion’s result.

CAUTION: Disconnect the DC power cable from

the transceiver before any work on the transceiver.
