EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS
FEATURES
• USER-SELECTABLE INTERFACE
Users can choose from 3 different operating screens de-
pending on their ability level and preference.
• WIDE FREQUENCY RANGE, MULTI-MODE RECEIVE
The IC-PCR1000 has a wide frequency coverage from 0.5
MHz to 1300 MHz* with all mode receive capability.
* Some frequency ranges are restricted depending on version.
• IF SHIFT
The IF shift function is effective in SSB mode for reducing in-
terference from nearby signals. It does so by electronically
shifting the passband of the IF filter.
• REAL-TIME BANDSCOPE FUNCTION
The real-time bandscope function makes it easy to find busy
frequencies and also easy to observe receive frequency band
conditions. The maximum band width is ±200 kHz.
• NOISE BLANKER • VSC (Voice Scan Control) FUNCTION
• S-METER SQUELCH • HIGH PERFORMANCE PLL
CIRCUIT • A VARIETY OF TUNING STEPS • A VARIETY OF
SCANS • DIGITAL AFC CIRCUIT
Versions of the IC-PCR1000 which display “CE” on the serial
number seal, comply with the essential requirements of the
89/336/EEC directive for Electromagnetic Compatibility.
WORD DEFINITION

PRECAUTION
RWARNING! NEVER connect the receiver to an AC
outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric
shock.
NEVER connect other than the specified AC adapter to the
receiver. This connection will ruin the receiver.
NEVER connect the receiver to a power source of more
than 16 V DC such as a 24 V battery. This connection will ruin
the receiver.
NEVER allow children to touch the receiver.
NEVER expose the receiver to rain, snow or any liquids.
DO NOT use or place the receiver in areas with tempera-
tures below 0°C (+32°F) or above +50°C (+122°F) or, in
areas subject to direct sunlight.
AVOID placing the receiver in excessively dusty environ-
ments.
AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or al-
cohol when cleaning, as they damage the receiver surfaces.
For U.S.A. only (FCC information)
CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this receiver, not
expressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to operate
this receiver under FCC regulations.
Class B digital device users
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment gen-
erates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not in-
stalled and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
For Canada only
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device
may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any in-
terference, including interference that may cause undesired opera-
tion of the device.

■Antenna installation
Antennas play a very important role in receiver operation.
Connecting a poor quality antenna to the IC-PCR1000 will re-
sult in less than optimum performance.
Select antenna(s), such as a well-matched 50 Ωantenna and
feedline. 1.5:1 of Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) is
recommended for a desired band. Of course, the antenna line
should be a coaxial cable.
CAUTION: Protect your receiver from lightning by
using a lightning arrestor.
NOTE: The supplied antenna is a simple plain antenna which
may not obtain indicated specifications. To obtain maximum
performance from the IC-PCR1000, you must purchase an
external wide band antenna such as an optional Icom
AH-7000 (25–1300 MHz), etc.
Contact your nearest Icom Dealer or Service Center for re-
garding optimum antenna locations.
The antenna connector type is BNC, so an adapter may
be necessary to connect an optional antenna.
■Grounding
RWARNING: NEVER use a gas pipe or electrical
conduit pipe for grounding.
To prevent accidents involving electricity and interference
from computers, ground the receiver through the GROUND
terminal on the rear panel.
For best results, connect a heavy gauge cable to a water pipe
or long, earth-sunk copper rod. Make the distance between
the [GND] terminal and ground as short as possible.
