Descriptions

Wide frequency coverage with 1 kW output*

All HF bands plus the 50 MHz band are covered. The IC-PW1/ EURO provides a stable, clean and low distortion 1 kW from 1.8 MHz to 50 MHz*. In addition, full duty cycle (even during more demanding RTTY or SSTV operation) and full break-in operation are possible. Great for DX’peditions or contest operation.

*Guaranteed within amateur bands only.

Wide ALC adjustable range

Internal circuitry allows the ALC to be adjusted over a wide range. This means that the IC-PW1/EURO can be used with almost any HF, 6 m or HF/6 m rigs–not only Icom rigs*!

*Ask your dealer about usable exciters.

Compact body

Dimensions, including amplifier, power supply, tuner and controller, are only 350(W) × 269(H) × 378(D) mm*. And, because the controller is detachable, the IC-PW1/EURO can be installed almost anywhere in your shack.

*13.8(W) × 10.6(H) × 14.9(D) in.

Other outstanding features…

Output antennas are selectable from exciters (Icom transceivers only), even when the power of the IC-PW1/EURO is off
Automatic AC input voltage selector is employed
Current (lD), Voltage (VD), temperature, SWR and output power protectors are available
Automatic antenna tuner built-in
