For some reason Icom marketed this radio as a business radio when it was current, which is a great shame because it's an excellent ham radio with direct frequency entry from the keypad and access to all the features that can be set and then stored in memory. There are simple up/down buttons too so going up and down the band is simple. We've been using them on marine band where customers just want a simple radio that works on a single channel (like in the marinas) or with just a small number to choose from for simplicity (or to stop people accidentally transmitting in the wrong place) The few we have we thought we'd sell in the 'right' place - so amateurs can take advantage of a very small but solid, high power radio for 2m, but also be able to use any frequency 136-174Mhz band.
They also have a standard BNC antenna connector - Icom have used this connector since the 70s, and it makes reliable and sturdy connection to external antennas very simple - not as fragile as using SMA adaptors which are never strong enough.
