Talk Range
The IC-4088E is designed to maximize performance and improve
transmission range in the field. However, the single most impor-
tant factor in transmit range (talk power) is the surrounding envi-
ronment. These radios are “line of sight” radios and as such,
transmission range are influenced by the degree to which you
can “see” the other communicating party. Large concrete struc-
tures and heavy foliage or transmission from inside a building or
vehicle will reduce the talk power range.
• Optimal range: wide, open areas free of obstructions.
• Medium range: large buildings or trees blocking your line of
sight.
• Minimum range: mountainous areas or areas of heavy foliage.
