PRECAUTIONS  
NEVER place the receiver where normal operation of the  
RWARNING! NEVER connect the receiver via the  
OPC-254L to an AC outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or re-  
sult in an electric shock.  
vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury.  
NEVER let objects impede the operation of the cooling fan  
on the rear panel.  
RWARNING! NEVER operate the receiver while dri-  
ving a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention— any-  
thing less may result in an accident.  
AVOID using or placing the receiver in direct sunlight or in  
areas with temperatures below –10°C (+14°F) or above  
+60°C (+140°F).  
NEVER connect the receiver to a power source of more  
than 14 V DC. This will damage the receiver.  
BE CAREFUL! The receiver will become hot when op-  
erating it continuously for long periods.  
NEVER connect the receiver to a power source using re-  
verse polarity. This will damage the receiver.  
AVOID setting the receiver in a place without adequate  
ventilation. Heat dissipation may be affected, and the receiver  
may be damaged.  
NEVER cut the DC power cable between the DC plug and  
fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is made after cutting,  
the receiver may be damaged.  
AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or al-  
cohol when cleaning, as they can damage the receiver’s sur-  
faces.  
DO NOT leave the main unit powered ON and connected  
to a vehicle’s electrical system. The main unit draws approx.  
550 mA. This will eventually drain the vehicle’s battery.  
For U.S.A. only  
NEVER expose the receiver to rain, snow or any liquids.  
The receiver may be damaged.  
CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this device, not ex-  
pressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to  
operate this device under FCC regulations.  
NEVER operate or touch the receiver with wet hands. This  
may result in an electric shock or damage the receiver.

Typically, AM mode is used for the AM broadcast stations  
(0.495–1.620 MHz) and air band (118–135.995 MHz), and  
WFM is used for FM broadcast stations (76–107.9 MHz).

BASIC OPERATION 4  
Attenuator function  
AGC function  
The AGC (Automatic Gain Control) function controls receiver  
gain to produce a constant audio output level even when the  
received signal strength varies from fading, etc. A slow-re-  
sponse AGC function is selectable for SSB, CW or AM mode.  
The attenuator prevents a desired signal from being distorted  
when very strong signals are near the desired frequency or  
when very strong RF fields, such as from a broadcasting sta-  
tion, are near your location. The attenuator reduces signal  
strength by about 20 dB and this function can be activated on  
1300 MHz or below.

quency is received. It activates in FM mode and only when  
the selected IF filter is 6 kHz or 15 kHz.  
[
VSC function

The VSC (Voice Squelch Control) function opens the squelch  
only when receiving a modulated signal. This function is very

signals are received. Scanning continues when unmodulated  
or beat signals are received.

[
IF shift function  
[
The IF shift function electronically changes the passband fre-  
quency of the IF (Intermediate frequency) cuttting out higher  
or lower frequency components of the IF to reject interfer-  
ence. This function is available when the receive mode is  
SSB or CW mode, and shifts the IF frequency up to ±25 steps  
(in 1 step: 50 Hz).

BASIC OPERATION  
Duplex operation  
Duplex communication uses two different frequencies for trans-  
mitting and receiving. Generally, duplex is used in communi-  
cation through a repeater, some utility communications, etc.  
tRotate [DIAL] to set the desired offset frequency within  
0.000–1000.000 MHz range.  
• The tuning step, selected in VFO mode, is used for setting.  
• Push [V/MHz• SCAN] then rotate [DIAL] to change the fre-  
quency in 10 MHz steps, or push again then rotate [DIAL] to  
change the frequency in 1 MHz steps. (Each push toggles  
1MHz, 10 MHz or selected tuning steps.)  
During duplex operation, the transmit station frequency is  
shifted from the receive station frequency by the offset fre-  
quency. Repeater information (offset frequency and shift di-  
rection) can be programmed into memory channels. (p. 16)

T, U, W and Y are available for storing groups of frequencies,  
etc. Up to 100 channels can be assigned to a bank.

POCKET BEEP AND TONE SQUELCH  
Tone/DTCS squelch operation  
The tone or DTCS squelch opens only when receiving a sig-  
nal with the same pre-programmed subaudible tone or DTCS  
code. You can silently wait for a signal using the same tone.  
r When a signal with a matching tone is received, the  
squelch opens and the receiver emits audio.  
• When the received signal includes an unmatched tone, the  
squelch does not open. However, the S-meter indicator shows  
the received signal strength.  
q Set the operating frequency in FM mode.  
w Program the CTCSS tone frequency or DTCS code in set

e Push and hold [MONI•T/T-SCAN] for 1 sec. to enter  
tone squelch selection mode, then rotate [DIAL] until “ ”  
or “ ” appears in the function display.  
To open the squelch manually, push [MONI•T/T-SCAN].  
t To cancel the tone squelch or DTCS squelch function, re-

When the reverse action is selected for either the tone  
squelch, “tSqL-r,” or DTCS squelch, “dtCS-r,” and a signal  
with the matched tone (or DTCS) is received, the squelch  
closes, and the receiver mutes the signal. You can listen to  
signals with any tone other than the specified one.

Tone scan  
By monitoring a signal using with pocket beep, tone or DTCS  
squelch, you can determine the tone frequency or DTCS  
code necessary to open the squelch.  
r When the CTCSS tone frequency or 3-digit DTCS code is  
matched, the squelch opens and the tone frequency is  
temporarily programmed into the VFO or memory channel.  
• The tone scan pauses when a CTCSS tone frequency or 3-digit  
DTCS code is detected.  
q Set the desired operating frequency or memory channel to  
be checked for a tone frequency or code.  
w Push and hold [MONI•T/T-SCAN] for 1 sec and rotate  
[DIAL] to select the tone type, tone squelch or DTCS, to  
be scanned.  
• Either “ ” or “ ” appears.  
e Push and hold [MONI•T/T-SCAN] for 1 sec. to start the
