The Icom R2500-05 wideband computer receiver connects externally to your PC via a USB cable. The radio can also be controlled via the supplied control head (with not all functions supported). That is right; you can operate the R2500 strictly with the supplied control head. The USB port provides compatibility with many computer models, even laptops. Incredible coverage is yours with reception from 10 kHz to 3300 MHz (less cellular and minor gaps). Sub band reception is 50 to 1300 MHz (less gaps). See specifications for exact coverage. Modes of reception include AM, FM-Wide, FM-Narrow, SSB and CW. (CW and SSB from 0.5 - 1300 MHz only). Many tuning steps are available:  1Hz, 10Hz, 20Hz, 50Hz, 100Hz, 500Hz, 1kHz, 2.5kHz, 5kHz, 6.25kHz, 8.33kHz, 9kHz, 10kHz, 12.5kHz, 15kHz, 20kHz, 25kHz, 30kHz, 50kHz, 100kHz, 125kHz, 150kHz, 200kHz, 500kHz, 1MHz, 10 MHz. CTCSS and DTCSS decoding is supported.

The R2500 has two powerful features, previously only available in high end military receivers. These two features are dual watch and diversity reception. With dual watch, the receiver can receive two signals simultaneously. With diversity reception, two antennas can be connected at the same time and employed to provide very stable reception. (Typically, the two antennas would be separated by distance and/or be of different polarity).

The R2500 comes with a remote head, AD-113A AC adapter, whip antenna, USB cable and Windows 98SE/ME/2000/XP/Vista™ PCR2500 software CD. Please also see the Icom PCR2500. Installation note:  the UT-108 and UT-118 cannot be installed at the same time.

The R2500-10 model is the same as above, but without the frequency gaps and can be purchased via government or cellular communications provider qualifying purchase order or for export only. This version is not available via on-line ordering.
