Icom radios have sailed the ocean, own the sky, and
now theyve climbed the highest peak on earth.
In May, a climbing team led by
Mountain Link, a Bend, Ore.-based
mountaineering guide service, summited
Mt. Everest with Icom radios in hand. At
29,035 feet in elevation, Mt. Everest is
the tallest mountain peak in the world.
Equipped with Icom F14 portables,
the 13 members of Mountain Links team
spent nearly four weeks moving from
base camp up the mountain, acclimatizing to the altitude and waiting for a
window of good weather, before their
nal push to the summit.
Nearly 450 international climbers
reached Everests summit this year.
Eleven climbers died on the attempt, and
another uncounted number were forced

TECH CORNER
This feature allows you to tighten up the squelch for selected channels in the F3061/F4061 radios. For a
selected channel, this setting adds to the general radio squelch setting. For example, if your radio squelch is set
to 80, but you have a channel that is still too noisy, you can tighten up the squelch for that channel by adding
20 to that channel only for a total squelch value of 100. The other channels would remain at a squelch value of
80. To use this setting, lets walk through the procedure.
1. Open your cloning software and navigate to Common -> Common.
2. In the SQL Tight Offset eld, enter an appropriate squelch setting for channels that need the squelch tightened.
3. Navigate to Memory CH and double-click in the SQL Tight eld for the applicable channel.
4. Select ON to enable the additional squelch value for the channel.
Thats it, just read the new settings into the radio.
