SPECIFICATIONS

New Intuitive User Interface

Icom’s common Marine Family User Inter-
face provides simple operation for the boat 
owner. A rotary selector, directional keypad 
provides intuitive operation. The high defi -
nition dot-matrix display allows all informa-
tion to be clearly viewed. 

Built-in Class D DSC

The built-in DSC watch function moni-
tors Ch. 70 (DSC channel) activity, even 
while you are receiving another channel. 
DSC functions include: distress, individual, 
group, all ships, urgency, safety, position 
request/report, polling request and DSC 
test calls. 

Common NMEA Interface

When connected to an external GPS re-
ceiver, current position and time are shown 
on the IC-M323’s display. When receiving 
DSC information from another vessel, the 
IC-M323 can transfer it to a navigational 
device via NMEA 0183 connectivity. 

Compatible with MA-500TR 
Class B AIS Transponder

The IC-M323 can be integrated with the 
MA-500TR Class B AIS Transponder al-
lowing you to transmit DSC individual 
calls to a selected vessel instantly with-
out manual MMSI entry; very handy if you 
are waiting to contact vessels on the AIS 
screen, an essential safety feature in an 
emergency. 

IPX7 Waterproof Protection

The IC-M323 withstands submersion in up 
to 1.0m depth of water for 30 minutes. It is 
equivalent to the IPX7 standard. 

Favorite Channel Function 

This function allows for quicker channel 
selection. Set the “Tag” channel to the 
channels used most often. When push-
ing the up/down buttons on the hand mi-
crophone, only the tagged channels are 
selected, while untagged channels are 
skipped.
