Frequently Asked Questions

What is an S3 connector?

The S3 is a 2-pin right-angle connector used on a wide range of Icom handheld radios including the F3G, F4G, F11, F14, F21, F24, F33, and F43 series, as well as Icom dual-pin amateur radios and compatible Maxon, Cobra, and Ritron radios.

What is the difference between the S3 and S6 Icom cables?

The S3 is a standard 2-pin right-angle connector used on most Icom F series radios. The S6 is a bolt-on screw connector used on Icom radios with a threaded port — including the F3001, F4001, F3021, F4021, and IC-V80 series. Check your radio's connector type or see our Connector Guide.

Will this cable work with my Icom F11 or F21?

The F11 and F21 can use either the S3 or S6 connector depending on the variant. Check whether your radio has a standard 2-pin port (S3) or a bolt-on screw port (S6). If unsure, contact Aaron Harris on +64 27 449 9654.

Does this cable work with Maxon radios?

Yes — Maxon SL25, SL55, SP100–SP140, and PL series radios use the S3 connector and are compatible with this cable.

Do you ship to Australia?

Yes. Harris Race Radios ships to Australia with NZ stock held locally for fast dispatch.
