Heavy-Duty Speaker Microphone for Icom Portable Radios
The Icom HM159LA lets you transmit and receive without removing your compatible radio from its belt or carrying position. Its large speaker, coiled cable, and rotary clip provide a practical audio setup for warehouse, security, and field teams.
A 3.5mm earphone jack supports private listening with a separately sold earpiece. The right-angle, screw-on LA-type connector secures the microphone to the radio, while the 8-position metal alligator clip lets you adjust its position on clothing or straps.
