The dBμ, dBμ (emf) and dBm meter has a high ±3dB accuracy* (between 0.5–1100MHz) that can be used for measuring signal strength level.\u003cbr\u003e\u003csup\u003e* Less than ±6dB between 1100–3000MHz.\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSoftware Demodulation in Fpga Processing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IC-R8600 utilizes FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) and DSP units for demodulation, decoding and most of signal processing. Direct HF signals and intermediate frequency signals, which are converted from VHF\/UHF signals, are digitized in a 14-bit A\/D converter and transferred to the FPGA and DSP for optimal processing. The high-rate 122.88MHz sampling frequency used for the A\/D converter results in superior aliasing and image reception reduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuperb Receiver Performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IC-R8600 has 11 discrete RF bandpass filters in the HF bands and 13 bandpass filters in the VHF\/UHF bands. To prevent overflow, only the intended signal is passed, while any out of range strong interference signals are rejected. The IC-R8600 provides +30dBm IP3 and 105dB dynamic range at 14.1MHz. IP3 performance is +10dBm at 144MHz and 0dBm at 440MHz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAmple Memory Channels\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IC-R8600 has up to 2000 regular memory channels assignable to 100 groups. In addition to the regular memory channels, up to 100 scan skip channels and 50 pairs of program scan edges can be set. The auto memory write scan automatically stores busy frequencies in the auto memory write channels (up to 200 channels). These memory channels and various settings can be edited with the optional CS-R8600 programming software on a Windows\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e PC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVariety of Scan Functions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA variety of scan functions effectively and thoroughly search for desired stations.

The waterfall screen allows you to find weak signals by showing the spectrum change over time. When tapping the spectrum scope or waterfall screen, the tapped area can be selected as the operating frequency. The peak search function finds several peak frequencies within the scope range, and helps you to select these.

The large 4.3-inch color display, with touch screen function, is configured to collect operating information. By tapping indications and icons on the screen, the setting menu will pop up and parameters can easily be adjusted. When either the DIAL A, B or C multi-function control knobs is pushed, various functions, such as scan speed, RF gain, audio tone, display backlight or other menus will pop up on the display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSD Card Slot for Receiver Recorder\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe recorder function can record received audio onto an SD card in WAVE format.
