Reception modes include: AM, LSB, USB, CW, FM-N and FM-W. The R8500 (and R9500) are clear exceptions to this rule, combining the performance of the popular HF IC-R75 and venerable VHF/UHF IC-R7100. Most wideband receivers tend to perform only modestly below 30 MHz. Covering 100 kHz to 1999.99 MHz, this receiver does cover it all and more importantly it does it well throughout this extraordinary range. The Icom IC-R8500 -32K government receiver produces performance, coverage and sophistication rarely seen in other models.
