The IF shift function works efficiently to reject interference from nearby signals, especially in SSB mode.

The VSC (voice scan control) provides efficient scanning by skipping unmodulated signals. A variable tuning system, which is employed in the front-end tuning circuit, improves multi-signal characteristics, ensuring enhanced receiving performance.īasic scanning, memory, priority and program scans are available, and for more advanced needs, select scans can also be selected. The IC-R8500 has superior high receive sensi-tivity over its entire range and the built-in, high quality crystal (TCXO) provides good frequency stability of less than 100Hz below 30MHz less than 3ppm above 30MHz. The IC-R8500 covers a wide frequency range continuously from 0.1 to 1999.99999MHz* with 10Hz resolution. Various modes are supported for listening to not only amateur bands, FM or TV Broadcast stations, but also marine and avionics.
