The IC-F33G series is suitable for a variety of needs — large or small, mobile or stationary. Whether you are a large-scale construction site, warehouse, hospital or hotel, or a small on the go messenger service, this radio provides the built-in flexibility to handle your communication needs. Offering advanced features such as wide frequency range, multiple signaling and loud audio, the IC-F33G series is a rugged and reliable 2-way communications tool. This is the new direction in LMR communications.

Lithium-Ion battery pack

Supplied 1150mAh Li-Ion battery pack, BP-231, provides 8/9 hours* of operating time. For longer operating time, use the BP-232 which is rated for a full 15/16 hours*. Li-Ion technology has virtually no memory charging issues. A rugged dual-rail guide securely locks the battery to the radio.
* UHF/VHF, Typical operation Tx:Rx: Stand-by=5:5:90, power save on

Wide frequency range and large channel capacity

The IC-F33G series covers a wide frequency range in one version (VHF 136-174MHz, UHF 400-470MHz or 450-512 (520) MHz). The 256 memory channel capacity with 16 memory banks allows you to divide and store a variety of flexible channel groupings. Easy memory channel selection with a simple rotation of the rotary channel knob.

Small and lightweight body

The IC-F33G series sheds size and weight compared with previous models, weighing just 285g* (including BP-231) and measuring only 53(W)×120(H)×32.5(D) mm**. The aluminum die-cast chassis and polycarbonate casing combination meets MIL standard specifications.
* 10.0 oz, VHF version
** 23/32(W)x 423/32(H)x19/32(D) in

Built-in multi-format tone signaling

Use the built-in CTCSS, DTCS, 2-Tone, or 5-Tone to set up your own talk groups and quiet stand-by when others are talking. You can also set up selective calls to individuals or control a repeater.

Multiple 2-Tone, Multiple 5-Tone

Encode or decode up to 10 2-Tone, 8 5-Tone codes on a single memory channel. This is perfect for professionals who require multiple district paging on one channel. When a matched tone is received, the following items are programmable for each code.

  • Bell icon
  • Beep Sound
  • Answer Back
  • Auto Transmit
  • Stun
  • Scan

8 programmable buttons

The [P0]–[P3], [▲], [▼], [Red] and [Monitor] buttons are programmable to meet specific needs. The [Red] button on the top panel can be assigned as an emergency trigger.

Alphanumeric display

The 8-character alphanumeric display shows channel, bank, tone code and scanning channel names on the display. A separate row of operational icons indicate battery, signal strength, RX/TX and other radio conditions.

Audio compander

The built-in audio compander reduces noise components and provides clear reception even in narrow band use.

Built-in voice scrambler

The IC-F33G series includes a built-in inversion type voice scrambler in all models. When a more secure system is required, the optional voice scrambler unit UT-109 or UT-110 is available.

MDC 1200 compatible

The following selective calling and ANI features are available with the built-in MDC signalling.

  • Radio check
  • Caller ID
  • Call alert
  • Selective Call
  • Radio stun/revive
  • Status
  • Pre-fixed mesage

Other features

  • 8 DTMF autodial memories
  • 2 step reduced power setting
  • Power saver
  • Power on password
  • Busy, repeater lockout functions
  • Optional SmarTrunk 3G™ unit, UT-117
  • Programmable wide and narrow channelbandwidth (25/12.5kHz)
    and more...
