Compact IPX7 Waterproof Audio Solution for Marine Portables

The Icom HM202 is a professional-grade, waterproof speaker microphone specifically engineered for high-performance marine communication. Designed as a vital accessory for the M72 and M73 series handheld radios, this microphone allows maritime professionals to transmit and receive audio without ever needing to unclip their radio from a life vest or belt. With its IPX7 waterproof rating, the Icom HM202 is built to survive the harshest deck conditions, ensuring that spray, rain, and even temporary submersion do not compromise your primary link to the bridge or other vessels.

Engineered for the ergonomic needs of maritime operators, the HM202 features a compact, easy-to-grip housing that is manageable even with gloved hands. The high-output speaker is tuned to cut through the roar of wind and engine noise, delivering clear, intelligible audio in demanding offshore environments. Equipped with a heavy-duty 4-pin waterproof connector and a high-memory coiled cable, the Icom HM202 provides the durable, hands-free flexibility required for mission-critical operations at sea.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this microphone compatible with the M85? No. The Icom HM202 uses a specific 4-pin connector designed for the M72 and M73. For the M85, you would typically require the HM184 or HM222.

Can I use this in saltwater? Yes. However, as with all marine electronics, we highly recommend rinsing the microphone with fresh water after exposure to salt spray to prevent salt buildup and maintain the integrity of the seals.

Does it have an earphone jack? No. To maintain its strict IPX7 waterproof integrity, the HM202 does not feature an external audio jack.
