INSTRUCTION MANUAL HF/VHF/UHF TRANSCEIVER i9100
FOREWORD Thank you for making the IC-9100 your radio of choice. We hope you agree with Icom’s philosophy of “technology first.” Many hours of research and development went into the design of your IC-9100.
PRECAUTIONS R DANGER HIGH RF VOLTAGE! NEVER attach an antenna or internal antenna connector during transmission. This may result in an electrical shock or burn. R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver with a headset or other audio accessories at high volume levels. Hearing experts advise against continuous high volume operation. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue use.
D-STAR INTRODUCTION D About the D-STAR system In the original D-STAR (Digital Smart Technologies for Amateur Radio) plan, JARL envisioned a system of repeaters grouped together into Zones. A zone would be a group of up to 4 repeaters, linked by 10 GHz “backbone” microwave Link repeaters. Each individual repeater would be call an Area repeater, and would be the Access repeater to begin communications. Calls could be made to other Area repeaters within the Zone, using the backbone Link repeater system.
D $ 34!2 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION Area 1 Area 2 Repeater 1 Area 3 (Gateway) Repeater 2 Area 4 Repeater 3 Repeater 4 Zone A Internet Area 5 Area 6 (Gateway) Repeater 5 Zone B Repeater 6 Area 8 Area 7 Repeater 7 Repeater 8 Area: Zone: The Area is the communication range that is covered by a single repeater. The repeater is called an area, or access repeater in the D-STAR system. The Zone is composed of several areas, that are linked by a 10 GHz microwave link.

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS 2 N 3ELECTING A LOCATION N 'ROUNDING Select a location for the transceiver that allows adequate air circulation, free from extreme heat, cold, or vibrations, and away from TV sets, TV antenna elements, radios and other electromagnetic sources. To prevent electrical shock, television interference (TVI), broadcast interference (BCI) and other problems, ground the transceiver using the GROUND terminal on the rear panel.
2 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS N !NTENNA CONNECTION For radio communications, the antenna is of critical importance, along with output power and receiver sensitivity. Select a well-matched 50 ø antenna and coaxial cable feedline. We recommend 1.5:1 or better of Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) on your operating bands. The transmission line should be a coaxial cable. When using a single antenna (for the HF/50 MHz band), use the [ANT1] connector.
