IC-M411

Combined DSC/VHF Marine Transceiver

The IC-M411 is a compact, waterproof VHF/DSC radio that is ideal for small boats or where space is at a premium. This model features a large speaker grille, which gives excellent audio quality. The buttons and display have been designed to be easy to see in poor lighting conditions.

Superior receiver sensitivity and speaker audio

The IC-M411 has excellent receiver performance. The efficient speaker also reproduces a low frequency audio composition for clear and crisp audio.

Class D DSC built-in

The IC-M411 has a built-in Ch 70 (DSC channel) receiver, which monitors activity, even while you are receiving another channel. When in an emergency situation, an automated distress call can be sent with a touch of a button.

Digital selective calling features

DSC uses a unique ID (MMSI code), so you can make contact with the intended ID station or group directly, or with all ships in the area. A total of 100 address IDs can be programmed with 10-character address name and up to 20 received DSC messages are stored.

Position request and polling request

When connected to an external GPS receiver, the position request function allows you to exchange the ships position information. The polling (request/reply) function checks whether a specific ship is in the communication range.

IPX7 waterproof protection

The IC-M411 and microphone, withstands submersion in up to 1m depth of water for 30 minutes (equivalent to IPX7 waterproofing.*)

AquaQuake draining function

AquaQuake draining function emits a vibrating sound and clears water away from the speaker grill.

NMEA input

When connected to an external GPS receiver, the IC-M411 displays the ship’s position. The IC-M411 supports NMEA 0183 Version 2.0 and 3.01. Supported sentence formats are RMC, GGA, GNS and GLL.

Large LCD

The large LCD shows a full sized channel number and 10 character scrolling channel comment. The 4 levels of LCD backlight make the screen easy to see in all conditions.

Simple operation

9 clearly labelled buttons below the display are well spaced for optimum user friendly operation. The “Distress” button is covered with a spring loaded plastic cover to prevent accidental distress call activation. The supplied remote function microphone allows you to select channels and change output power directly.

Favourite channel function

This function allows for quicker channel selection. Set the “Tag” channel to the channels used most often. When pushing the up/down buttons on the hand microphone, only the tagged channels are selected, while untagged channels are skipped.
